Question

A table is sold for rupees 405 and a tray costing rupees 30 is given free with it .the shopkeeper makes a profit of 25% on it . what did the table cost to shop keeper​

Answer 1

Answer:

300

Step-by-step explanation:

total selling price of table + tray = 405

actual selling price of table=405-30=375

let cost price be X

selling price = 375

profit = 25%

profit = (sp-cp)/cp

25/100=(375-x)/x

by cross multiplying

25*x=100(375-x)

25x=37500-100x

25x+100x=37500

125x=37500

x=37500/125

x= cost price of table=300
