Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

selling price= x

given

cost price is 96% of the selling price.

96% is written in the decimal form

=\frac{96}{100}

=  100 / 96

= 0.96

Cost price = 0.96 × Selling price

= 0.96x

Profit = Selling price - Cost price

= x - 0.96x

= x (1-0.96)

=Cost price

Profit percentage=

x

(1−0.96)x×100

Profit\ percentage = (1-0.96)x100

Profit percentage= x

(1−0.96)x×100

Profit\ percentage = 0.04x100

Profit percentage= x

0.04x×100

Profit\ percentage = 4x 100x100Profit percentage=

x×100

4x×100

Answer 2

|| GIVEN ||

• Cost Price CP = ₹ 96

• Profit = 8 1/3 % = 25/3 %

|| TO FIND ||

• Selling Price SP

|| FORMULA USED ||

$\implies \bf SP = \frac{(100 + gain \%)}{100} \times CP$

|| SOLUTION ||

$\implies \bf SP = {{ \frac{(100 + gain \%)}{100} \times CP \: }}$

$\implies \dfrac{(100 + \dfrac{25}{3}) }{100} \times 96$

$\implies \dfrac{325}{300} \times 96$

$\implies \dfrac{31,200}{300}$

$\implies \bf 104$

Therefore , The selling price is ₹ 104 /-
