Question

A table was sold for rs.4,221 at the gain of 5% at what price should be sold to gain 10%????​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

S.P.of table =₹4221

Gain =5%

C. P. = 100/100+gain % × S.P.

= 100/100+5×S.P.

=100/105×₹4221

= 100× ₹40.2

= ₹4020

Now,

C. P. = ₹4020

Gain% =10%

S. P. = 100+ gain% /100 ×C.P.

= 100+10/100×C.P.

=110/100 × ₹4020

= 11×₹402

= ₹4422
