Question

by selling a bicycle for rupees 1638 Ishita loses 9% at what price should he sell it to make a profit of 15%

Answer 1

Given, SP of the bike = 1638

Loss% = 9%

___________________________________________________________

CP of the bicycle = 100/(100-loss%) * SP

= 100/(100-9) * 1638

= 100/91 * 1638

= 1800

Now profit% is 15%.

So, SP = (100+profit%) / 100 * CP

= (100+15)/100 * 1800

= 115/100 * 1800

= 2070

So, the selling price should be 2070 to make a profit of 15%.
