Answer 2

Answer:

220 rupees

solution

loss percent = 10%

SP OF THE ARTICLE = RS.180

LET CP OF THE ARTICLE BE X

THEN ACCORDING TO THE FORMULA OF LOSS PERCENT

$loss\% = ((cp - sp) \div cp) \times 100$

10=((x-180)÷x)×100

10x=(x-180)×100

10x=100x-18000

100x-10x=18000

90x=18000

x=200

so,cp=200

sp=180

in order to get a profit of 10%

we have to use the cp and also the profit % we want

according to the profit % formula

$profit\% = (( sp - cp) \div cp) \times 100$

let sp be x

then

10=((x-200)÷200)×100

10=(x-200)÷2

20=x-200

x = 200 +20

x=220

sp= 220 rs.

therefore the man should sell the article for rs.220 in order to get a profit of 10%.
