Question

by selling a shirt for Rs.1080 , aman suffers a loss of 10%. At what price should he sell it to gain 6 1/4 %​

Answer 1

$\sf\underline{Step-by-step \: explanation}$

Let the CP be x

Using the direct formula,

CP =


$\frac{100}{100 \: - \: l\ \: \%} \: \times \: sp$

x =

$\frac{100}{100 \: - \: 10} \: \times \: 1080$

x =

$\frac{100}{90} \: \times \: 1080$

After cancellation...

Rs. 1200 (CP)

To gain,

$6 \frac{1}{4} \%$

First lets find the improper fraction...

$\frac{25}{4}$

25/4 % of 1200,

$\frac{25}{4 \: \times \: 100} \: \times \: 1200$

After cancellation...

75

Sp = Cp + profit

Sp = 1200 + 75

Sp = Rs. 1275.
