Let the price be X,
=> X + X * X / 100 = 96 (Cost + Cost * Profit/100 = Selling price)
=> 100 X + X^2 = 9600 (Multiplied both sides with 100)
=> X^2 + 100 X - 9600 = 0
By solving this we can get
X = 60 & X = -160
As price cannot be negative, answer is 60...
=> X + X * X / 100 = 96 (Cost + Cost * Profit/100 = Selling price)
=> 100 X + X^2 = 9600 (Multiplied both sides with 100)
=> X^2 + 100 X - 9600 = 0
By solving this we can get
X = 60 & X = -160
As price cannot be negative, answer is 60...
