Question

By selling a buffalo for rupees 8100 there is a loss of 10% for how much should it be sold to get gain of 30%

Answer 1

The buffalo must be sold for ₹11700 to gain 30%

Answer 2

$\huge{\underline{\underline{Answer\::-}}}$

$\underline{\underline{Given\::-}}$

Selling price of buffalo = 8100

Loss % = 10 %

Then as we know that

S.P = C.P - loss %

Then

S.P = 90% of C.P

=> C.P = 8100 ×$\dfrac{100}{90}$

=> C.P = 90 × 100.

=> C.P = 9000

Now to gain 30% profit

He should sell it in the price

SP = CP + profit%

SP = 130% of CP

or

SP = $\dfrac{130 }{100} × 9000$

= 130 × 90

= 11700

So he should sell it in $\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{11700}}}$

Hope it helps
