Question

Gaurav sold a bicycle at a loss of 10%. Had it been sold rs 65 more his gain would have 14%. Find the cost price of bicycle.

Answer 1

Answer:

let the c.p of the bicycle be x rs

then, its original s.p. = 9x/10rs

A/q, 90x/100 + 65 = 114x/100

=> 24x/100 = 65

=> x = 6500/24 = 1625/6 = 270.84 rs
