Answer 1

➤ Correct Question :-

I buy a TV for rupees 10,000 and sell it at a profit of 20% how much money do I get for it ?

➤ Given :-

Cost price :- ₹ 10000

Profit percentage :- 20%

➤ To Find :-

Selling price of the given sum..........

➤ Solution :-

In the following sum, first we should find the profit in rupees form by multiplying profit percentage and cost price...........

Profit :-

$\tt \longrightarrow20 \bf\% \sf \: \: of \: \tt \: 10000$

Here, 'of' denotes multiplication.......

$\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{20}{100} \times 10000$

$\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{20}{ \cancel{100}} \times \cancel{10000} = \boxed{ \tt 20 \times 100}$

$\tt \longrightarrow \sf Rs \tt \: \: 2000$

Now,

We can find the selling price by adding the cost price and profit.

So,

Selling price :-

$\tt \longrightarrow10000 + 2000$

$\tt \longrightarrow \sf Rs \tt \: \: 12000$

$\Huge\therefore$The selling price of the television is ₹ 12000.
