Question

A tricycle is sold at a gain of 15% had it been sold for ₹108 more profit would be 20% find cp

Answer 1

Answer:

Cost Price = 2160

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be CP

According to Question,

15% of x + 108 = 20% of x

(20% of x) - (15% of x) = 108

5% of x = 108

(5/100) x = 108

x = (108 x 100)/5

x = ₹2160

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

c.p formula=sp×profit percentage by 100

=$108×15/100

=l6.2

therefore there would be a more profit =20percentage

=$108×20/100

=$22.6

hence the cost price of tricycle=$16.2 when there is 15 percent

=$22.6 when there is 20 percent
