Question

By selling an article for 1200, a shopkeeper loses 10%. At what price should he
have sold it to gain 10%?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Sp = 1200

loss = 10%

cp = 100/100 - loss% × Sp

= 100/100-10% × 1200

cp = Rs 1333.33

Answer 2

Answer:

suppose that,The cost price of an article is Rs. X

At 10 percent loss the shopkeeper sold an article

He sold an article =Rs. X- X×10/100 =Rs. X- X/10=Rs.10X- X / 10=Rs. 9X/ 10

Condition,

9X/ 10 = 1200

or, 9X = 12000

or, X= 12000/9 = 1333.33

The cost price of an article is Rs. 1333.33

If the shopkeeper sold an article to gain of 10 percent

Then the sold price of an article is Rs. 1333.33× 110/ 100= Rs. 1466. 663

If the shopkeeper sold an article to gain of 10 percent then the sold price is Rs. 1466.663
