• Ankur sold his refrigerator for 12000 and earn 20% profit. What was the costprice of the refrigerator?

Answer ⤵

$Let \: the \: cost \: \\ price \: of \: refrigerator \: be \: \\ Rs. \: x \: and \: that \: of \: a \\ \: camera \: be \: Rs. \: y$

$Since \: refrigerator \: was \: sold \: \\ for \: as \: sold \: for \: Rs.$

$12000 \: at \: a \: loss \: of \: 20%.$

$\red{12000 = x(100−20100)}$

$\red{= > x = 12000×10080=15,000 }$

$\red{and \: a \: camera \: was \: sold \: for \: Rs. }$

$\red1 \red2 \red0 \red 0 \red0 \: at \: a \: profit \: of \: 20%.$

$\red{12000 = y(12000×100120)}$

$\red{Y = 12000×100120}$

$= > 10000$

$Total \: cost \: price \: of \: both \: items = x + y$

$\red{= 15000 + 10000}$

$\red{= Rs. 25,000}$

$And \: total \: selling \: price \: of \: both \: items$

$\red{= 12000 + 12000}$

$\red{= Rs. 24000}$

$\red{Loss = 25000 - 24000}$

$\red{=Rs.1000}$
