Answer 2

Answer:

Rs 23000

Step-by-step explanation:

First with a profit of 5%, Selling price = 21000

That is (100+5)% of cost price.

To get a profit of 15%, the selling price should be (100+15)% of cost price.

Cost price=21000* (100/105)= 20000

New selling price with a profit of 15% is 115% of cost price= 20000*(115/100)=23000
