Step-by-step explanation:

CP of radio=x

SP of radio=92x/100

107x100=135+92x/100

(107x-92x)/100=135

15x/100=135

x=(135×100)/15

x=900

Answer:

let the cost price of radio be x

selling price at loss 8% = (100-loss%)/100 * CP

100-8/100*x

SP=92/100x

selling price at profit of 7% = (100+gain%)/100*CP

100+7/100*x

SP=107/100x

now ,

92/100x-107/100x= ₹ 135

15x=135

x=135/15

x=9

hope it helps ..!!
