Question

Arun sold a watch to Sonu at a gain of 10% and Sonu sold it to
Anita at a gain of 4%. If Anita pays Rs 1430 for it, for how much
did Arun purchase it?​

Answer 1

Answer:

1250

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Arun's cost price be 'x'.

Arun's selling price = 1.1 x

Sonu's selling price = 1.04 * 1.1 x

Therefore, 1.04 * 1.1 x = 1430

That gives x = 1250

Let Arun's cost price be 'x'.

Arun's selling price = 1.1 x

Sonu's selling price = 1.04 * 1.1

Therefore, 1.04 * 1.1 x = 1430
