Answer 2

Solutions :-



Given :

Selling price = Rs 4984
Gain Percent = 12 %


Find the cost price of Dinner set :-

C.P = (S.P × 100)/(100 + gain)
= Rs (4984 × 100)/(100 + 12)
= Rs 498400/112
= Rs 4450


Now,
Find the Selling price of Dinner set to get a gain of 18% :-

S.P = C.P + gain% of C.P
= Rs 4450 + 18% of 4450
= Rs 4450 + 0.18 × 4450
= Rs 4450 + 801
= Rs 5251



Hence,
The Selling price of Dinner set to get a gain of 18% is Rs 5251
