Question

By selling an air cooler for rupees 6800 Mr Arman loss 15% for what price should he sell it to get a profit of 10%

Answer 1

Answer:

8800 rupees

Step-by-step explanation:

S.P=6800 rupees

loss percent = 15 percent

loss = 15/100 × x

= 3x/20

x - 3x/20 = 6800

=> 20x/20 -3x/20 = 6800

=> 17x/20 = 6800

=> 17x = 6800× 20

= 136000

=> x = 136000/17

= 8000 rupees

C.P = 8000 rupees

profit percent = 10 percent

profit = 10/100 × 8000

= 800

Final S.P = 8000 + 800

= 8800 Rupees
