Question

A watch was sold at a loss of 8%. If it was sold for Rs.70 more, there would have been a gain of 4%. What is the cost price?

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the CP=100 with 10% loss the SP would be 90 and if it would be sold with gain of 4% then the SP would be 104. So the difference is 14. But given in the question the difference is 140. So we can compare 14 units to 140 which gives 1=10.

We have taken CP as 100 so taking 1=10 ,we get CP =100*10=1000. So 1000 is the final answer to the question.

This is the most easy method to solve this kinda question.
