Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Profit the shopkeeper made:

Y is 10% of 960

Equation: Y = P% * X

Solving our equation for Y

Y = P% * X

Y = 10% * 960

Converting percent to decimal:

p = 10%/100 = 0.1

Y = 0.1 * 960

Y = 96

Selling price= price of the article + profit he made:

960+96=1056

Or you can use another method

960 plus 10% is what?

960 plus 10% is Y

Equation:

X + (X × P%) = Y

X(1 + P%) = Y

Solving our equation for Y

Y = X(1 + P%)

Y = 960(1 + 10%)

Converting percent to decimal:

p = 10%/100 = 0.1

Y = 960 ×(1 + 0.1)

Y = 960×(1.1)

Y = 1056
