Question

by selling a dozen night suit for rupees 4923 loss 18% for what amount should he sell each piece to gain 15% profit

Answer 1

Solutions :-


We have,
Selling price of 1 Dozen night suit = Rs 4923
Selling price of 1 night suit = Rs 4923/12
= Rs 410.25

Loss % = 18%



Now,

Cost Price of 1 night suit = (S.P × 100)/(100 - loss)
= Rs (410.25 × 100)/(100 - 18)
= Rs 41025/82
= Rs 500.30 approx.


We have,
Cost Price of 1 night suit = Rs 500.23

Find the Selling price of each night suit to get 15% profit :-

S.P = C.P + Profit % of C.P
= Rs 500.30 + 15% of 500.30
= Rs 500.30 + 75.045
= Rs 575.345



Answer : The Selling price of each night suit to get 15% profit is Rs 575.345

Answer 2

$\bold {\huge {Solutions :-}}$


Given :

Selling price of 1 Dozen night suit = Rs 4923
Selling price of 1 night suit = Rs 4923/12
= Rs 410.25

Loss = 18%



Now,

Find the cost price of 1 night suit :-

C.P = (S.P × 100)/(100 - loss)
= (410.25 × 100)/(100 - 18)
= 41025/82
= 500.30 approx.



We get,
Cost Price of 1 night suit = Rs 500.23



Find the Selling price of each night suit for getting a profit of 15%

S.P = C.P + Profit % of C.P
= Rs 500.30 + 15% of 500.30
= Rs 500.30 + 75.045
= Rs 575.35 approx.




Hence,
The Selling price of each night suit for getting a profit of 15% is $\bold {Rs ~575.35 }$
