Question

by selling almirah for Rs 10416,a man gain 12%. what will be his gain or loss percent if it's sold for Rs 9114?

Answer 1

Ans= 2%loss

Selling price = 10416
Gain = 12%
So actual gain = 1116
Then
Cost price = 9300
So when he sold on 9114 then
Loss = 186
% loss = 2%

Answer 2

Hii..
Here is your answer...

Solution:-
Let the CP be x.
Gain=12℅
SP=x + 12℅ of x
$= > x + \frac{12}{100}x = 10416$
$= > \frac{100x + 12x}{100} = 10416 \\ = > \frac{112}{100}x = 10416$
$= > x = \frac{10416 \times 100}{112} \\ = > x = 9300$
Cost price=9300
Selling Price =9114

Since,SP<CP
So,it's a loss

Hence,
Loss=CP-SP
$= > 9300 - 9114 \\ = > 186$
Now,
$loss\% = \frac{loss}{cp} \times 100 \\ = > \frac{186}{9300} \times 100 \\ = > 2$

Hence,
Loss is 2%
