Question

by selling an article for rupees £240 a person loses 20% for how much should he sell it to gain 10%

Answer 1

SP = Rs.240
Loss % = 20%
CP = SP × 100/100 - L%
CP = 240 × 100/100 - 20
CP = 24000/80
CP = Rs.300
Now,
Profit % = 10%
CP = Rs.300
SP = (100 + P%/100) × CP
SP = (100 + 10/100) × 300
SP = 110/100 × 300
SP = 110 × 3
SP = Rs.330
Therefore, He should sell the article for Rs.330 to get profit of 10%
