Question

by selling a bicycle for RS 819, Vinay loses 9%. at what price should he sell it to make a profit of 5%?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Rs. 945

Step-by-step explanation:

selling price of bicycle = Rs. 819

loss % = 9

let cost price of bicycle be x

SP = CP - loss%

$819 = x - 9\% \: of \: x \\ 819 = x - \frac{9}{100}x \\ 819 = \frac{100x - 9x}{100} \\ 819 \times 100 = 100x - 9x \\ 819 \times 100 = 91x \\ x = \frac{819 \times 100}{91} \\ x = 9 \times 100 \\ x = 900$

cost price of bicycle = Rs. 900

to make profit of 5% the SP of bicycle

= CP + profit%

$= 900 + 5\% \: of \: 900 \\ = 900 + (\frac{5}{100} \times 900) \\ = 900 + (5 \times 9) \\ = 900 + 45 \\ = 945$

to make a profit of 5% the bicycle should be sold at Rs. 945
