Question

a shopkeeper sold a television and makes a profit of 8%. the buyer sold it for rs 52500 and suffered a loss of 10% what was the original price of the television?​

Answer 1

Answer:

First let us calculate CP of the buyer or sale price of shopkeeper

Sale price of Buyer = 52500.

On selling the buyer suffered a loss of 10%, so, CP of the buyer

= 52600/0.9

This is the sale price of the shopkeeper. Shopkeeper makes a profit of 8% while selling to Buyer

So, CP of shopkeeper or original price of the TV = (52500/0.9) * (1/1.08)

= Rs. 54012.35 Ans

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution

As

CP = SP×100/100-Loss%

= 52500×100/100-10

= 5250000/90

= Rs 58333.33

Now

Acoording to given Condition

Cost price of buyer = Selling price of shopkeeper

than

Original price/(CP) = SP×100/100+profit%

= 58333.33×100/100+8

= 5833333/92

= Rs 54012.34

So,

Original price of Telivision = Rs 54012.34
