Question

George buys a table and sells it to Lenin for ₹900 making a profit of 20 percent of Lenin sells it to Sam at a loss of 20 percent find the CP for George and Lenin​

Answer 1

Answer:

CP f table for George = X

SP                                 = 900 RS

Profit                             =20% =X * 20/100 = X/5

SP                                = X+X/5 = 900

                                   = 6X  = 900*5 = 4500

                                      X = 4500/6 = 750 RS = CP FOR GEPRGE

Now,  

SP F GEORGE = CP F LENIN = 900 RS

LOSS = 20% = 20/100 of 900

                         1/5 * 900 = 180

CP for SAM = 900-180 = 720 RS
