Answer:
X = ₹ 20.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Let the C.P be 100 unit
S.P of the one Pen = 10/4 = 2.25
C.P=?
According to the question, the shopkeeper make 20% profit
means the S.P is the 120 unit.
S.P = 2.25 = 120 unit
120 unit = ₹ 2.25
100 unit = 2.25/120
C.P of 1 pen is ₹ 1.875
To find out the S.P at 10% loss
Means 90 unit is the S.P
100 unit = ₹ 1.875
90 unit = ₹ 1.875/100*90 = ₹ 1.6875
so the S.P per dozen is = ₹ 1.6875 * 12
S.P = ₹ 20.25
There for the X = ₹ 20.25
