Question

If a man sells the chair at 7% loss and table at 17% profit then he earns 296 as total profit but he sells the chair at 7% and table at 12% profit then he earns 400 as total profit. find the cost of table ​ yes m free ​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Lets the cost price of one article is Rs X

Profit 15%

So S.P of this article =X+

100

X×15

=

20

23X

= 69000 Rs

so cost price of one article is 60000 Rs

Then net profit on this article =69000-60000=9000 Rs

And gain of both article is 3750 Rs

This means loss on other article is 9000-3750= 5250

Let the cost price of the other article is Rs Y

Add loss% =20%

so los on ather article =

100

Y×20

=5250

Y=5250×5=26250

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the CP of chair be Rs. x and CP of table

be Rs. y.

Given: Case-1:

Loss % on chair = 7%

Profit% on table = 17 %

Total profit = Rs. 296

We know that,

• SP = (100 - loss% / 100) * CP.

88

So,

SP (chair) = (100 - 7/100) * x

- SP (chair) = 93x/100

• SP = (100 + profit% / 100) * CP

- SP (table) = (100 + 17 / 100) y

- SP (table) = 117y/100

We know,

Profit = SP - CP

So, 296 = SP of chair + SP of table - CP of

chair - CP of table,

- 296 = (93x/100) + (117y/100) - x - y

– 296 = (93x + 117y - 100x - 100y)/100

29600 = 17y - 7x -- equation (1)

Case - 2:-

Profit % on chair = 7 %

-

SP (chair) (100 + 7/ 100) * x

- SP (chair) = 107x/100

Profit% on table = 12 %

- SP (table) = (100 + 12 / 100) * y

- SP (table) = 112y/100

Now,

Total Profit = 400

So,

- 400 = (107x/100) + (112y/100) - x - y

- 400 = ( 107x + 112y - 100x - 100y)/100

+ 40000 = 7x + 12y -- equation (2)

Add equations (1) & (2).

- 17y - 7x + 7x + 12y = 29600 + 40000

- 29y = 69600

--- y = 69600/29

- y = Rs. 2400

.. CP of table is Rs. 2400
