Question

By selling a T.V. set at rs 8,640 Diksha made a loss of 8%. What was the cost at which the T.Vw was bought?

Answer 1

Answer:

Rs. 9391

Step-by-step explanation:

let the cost price be x

loss is 8%

8% of x = 8/100 × x = 8x/100

selling price = cost price - loss

8640 = x - 8x/100

8640 = (100x - 8x)/100

92x = 8640 × 100

x = 8640 × 100/92

x = 93.91 × 100

x = 9391

therefore cost price of TV = Rs. 9391
