Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

sp =2142 rupees

gain %=5%

To find : cp

cp = 100×cp upon 100+gain%

= 100×2142upon 100+5

= 214200/105

= 2040 rupees

Again.

cp =2040 rupees

gain % =10%

To find : sp

sp = cp (100+gain %) upon 100

=2040×(100+10) upon 100

= 2040×110 upon 100

= 224400/100

=2244 rupees
