Question

By selling a table for 350 instead of 400, loss percent increases by 5%. The cost price of the table is: (S.S.C. 2005) (b) 417.50

Answer 1

Answer:

1000 IND.

Step-by-step explanation:

difference in s.p = 400-350 = 50

5% of x = 50 => x = 1000

OR

(x-350) = (x - 400) + 5% of x

5% of x = 50 => x = 1000 (c.p)
