Answer 1

hi frnd
here is ur answer
first we should find the cost price
100×8000=800000
800000÷80=10000
so cp is equal to 10000
11000 sold then profit of 1000
so profit% = 1000×100÷10000
100000÷10000
10% so he gets a profit of 10%

Answer 2

Let C.P. of TV = x

Loss in selling TV = 20% means he gets 80% of value of TV

∴ 80% of x = ₹ 8000

x = ₹ 8000 x 100/80 = ₹ 10000

∴ C.P. = ₹ 10000

Now S.P. = ₹ 11000

∴ Profit = ₹11000-₹10000 = ₹1000

∴ Profit % = ₹1000/₹10000 x 100

                = 10%   Profit Ans.
