Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let C.P = x ans S.P =y

then profit = y- x = 8x ÷100

x (y= 108x ÷ 100) - (1)

if S.P = y +57

then profit =(y+57 )-x= 14x÷100

x 108x ÷100 + 57 - x = 14x ÷ 100

x 8 x ÷100+57 = 14x÷100

x 6x ÷100 =57

x = 57

hence cost price = 57 rupees

i hope u understand this answer
