Question

A table was sold for 2,142 at a gain of 5% at what price should it be sold to gain 10 %​

Answer 1

Answer:

Selling price = ₹ 2142

Gain = 5 %

Let the cost price be Rs. x

⇒x + (x × 5)/100 = ₹ 2142

⇒x + x/20 = 2142

⇒ (20x + x)/20 = 2142

⇒ 21x/20 = 2142

⇒ 21x = 2142 × 20

⇒ x = 42840/21

⇒ x = 2040

So, the cost price of the table is Rs. 2040

Now,  

Gain needed = 10 %

So, the selling price = Cost price + gain

⇒ 2040 + (2040 × 10)/100

⇒ 2040 + 204

⇒ 2244

So, to gain 10% the shopkeeper should sell the table in Rs. 2244 .
