Question

by selling a T v set a retailer suffered a loss of 9%. had he sold for ₹3870 more, he would have earned a profit of 12% . what was the C.P of the T.V set ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Rs 3544.60 p

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the CP be Rs 100

Therefore SP = 100+3870 = 3970

Profit % = 12%

If the SP is Rs 112 the CP = 100

If the SP is 1 the CP = 100/112

If th SP is Rs 3970 then CP = 100/112×3970

= Rs 3544.60 p
