Question

if an article is sold 105 rupees there is a loss of 9% at what price should the article be sold so that there is a gain of 30%​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

S.p = ₹105

Loss % = 9%

Loss = 9/100 × 105

= ₹9.45 or ₹ 9.5( estimate)

C.P = S.p + loss

105 + 9.5

₹114.5

For 30% profit the article should be sold at price

Profit = 30/100 × 114.5

= ₹34.35

S.p = C.p + profit

= 114.5 + 34.35

= ₹149
