Answer:
Rs.14,160
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:- Selling price of item = 9600 with 20% discount.
The person sells it to another person with 18% profit.
To Find:- Selling price for the 2nd person.
Solution:-
Let the original price be x.
20% of x = 20x/100 = x/5
∴ Selling price of item with 20% discount = x - x/5 = 4x/5
Acc. to the question,
4x/5 = 9600
⇒ x = (9600 × 5)/4
⇒ x = 2400 × 5
⇒ x = 12,000
Therefore, the original price of the item is 12,000.
18% of 12,000 = (18 × 12,000)/100 = 18 × 120
= 2160
Therefore, the person earns a profit of Rs.2160.
The Selling price for item = 12,000 + 2,160
= 14,160
Therefore, the selling price for the 2nd person = Rs.14,160.
