Let the cost price = c
Selling at 350 loss = c - 350
Loss percent = (c-350)/c x 100
Selling at 400
Loss = c - 400
Loss percent = (c - 400)/c x 100
Loss increased by 5%
(c - 350)/c x 100 - (c - 400)/c x 100 = 5
(c-350)100 - (c-400)100 = 5c
50 = c/20
c = 1000
The cost price = Rs. 1000
Selling at 350 loss = c - 350
Loss percent = (c-350)/c x 100
Selling at 400
Loss = c - 400
Loss percent = (c - 400)/c x 100
Loss increased by 5%
(c - 350)/c x 100 - (c - 400)/c x 100 = 5
(c-350)100 - (c-400)100 = 5c
50 = c/20
c = 1000
The cost price = Rs. 1000
