Answer 1

Answer:

40000

Step-by-step explanation:

S.P = 56000

profit % = 40%

C.P =  ( SP * 100 ) / ( 100 + percentage profit).

      =  ( 56000x100)/(100+40)

       = 5600000/140

        = 40000

C.P = 40000

     

Answer 2

Answer:

SP = ₹56000

Gain% = 40%

$cp = \frac{100}{(100 \: + \: gain\%)} \times sp$

$cp = \frac{100}{100 \: + \: 40} \times 56000$

$= 40000$

CP = ₹40000
