Question

a steel almiran was sold at a loss of 10% , had it been sold for ₹212 more, there would have been a gain of 10%, find the cost price of the almirah.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let c.p=rs x

if gain is 10%,then s.p=rs110/100x

if loss of 10℅=then s.p=rs 90/100x

now,

diffrence in s.p= 212rs

110/100x-90/100x=212/100

20/100x=212

x=21200/20

x=1060rs

the c.p =1060rs
