If the shopkeeper makes a profit of 25% by selling a table for Rs. 405 and giving a tray for free of Rs. 30 then the cost of the table is Rs. 294.

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of the table including the tray cost = Rs. 405

Cost of the tray = Rs. 30

Profit = 25%

The cost price of the table including the tray cost is given as,

= \frac{100}{100+G} * S.P.

= \frac{100}{100+25} * 405

= \frac{100}{125} * 405

= 4 * 81

= Rs. 324

Thus,  

The cost of the table for the shopkeeper was,

= Rs. 324 – Rs. 30

= Rs. 294
