the original selling price be : x and the new selling price is : (2/3) of x = 2x/3
we know CP=(100/(100-Loss))*SP
Where SP is Selling Price. here, Loss = 10% and SP = 2x/3
Now CP=(100/90)*(2X/3)=20X/27 This is the Cost Price for that article.
Selling Price is : x
Gain = Cost Price - Selling Price
=X-20X/27=7X/27
Now Gain%= (7x/27)/(20x/27)= 35%
we know CP=(100/(100-Loss))*SP
Where SP is Selling Price. here, Loss = 10% and SP = 2x/3
Now CP=(100/90)*(2X/3)=20X/27 This is the Cost Price for that article.
Selling Price is : x
Gain = Cost Price - Selling Price
=X-20X/27=7X/27
Now Gain%= (7x/27)/(20x/27)= 35%
cant we solve it by assuming the SP 100
No
