Answer 1

Answer:

Rs1040

Step-by-step explanation:

If she had 40 % of loss then she sold watch at 60% of total amount.

so, 60% of actual amount is Rs480

so the actual amount is let total amount be x.

Then X × 60/100=480

Then X is Rs 800.

Now if she want 30% profit then the selling amount would be (30% of 800) + 800= Rs 1040

So the selling amount would be Rs 1040
