Answer:

Here you go

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

Abhishek sells a taperecorder to Rohan at a gain of 10%.

Rohan sells it to Sambhav on a 15% gain.

Sambhav pays Rs. 5060

To Find :-

how much did it cost Abhishek to buy the taperecorder.

Solution :-

selling cost 100 + 15 = 115

costs 100 when sp 115= (115×5060)÷100

At 10 % gain, sp, 100+10=110

Sp 110 when cp 100= (100×5819)÷110

=5290.

Hence Abhishek to buy the taperecorder is ₹ 5290
