Answers
Answer:56 Rupees
Step-by-step explanation :
Suppose the cost of the shirt is x rupees.
(1st) selling price =44rs.
and loss= cost of shirt - selling price
=x-44 rs.
If selling price =62 rs.
So, profit = selling price - cost of shirt
= 62- x rs.......(1)
According to question -
The profit = 50% of previous loss
=( x-44 )×50/100
=x-44×1/2
=x-44/2 rs. .....(2)
Now from eq. (1) and (2) :-
62-x =x-44/2
2×(62-x)=x-44
124-2x=x-44
Or 3x=124+44
3x=168
X=168/3=56 rs. Ans.
Answer:
Rs.41.33
Step-by-step explanation:
SP of shirt = Rs.62
Profit = 50%
Let the CP of shirt be x.
150% of CP = SP
150% of x = Rs.62
150/100x = Rs.62
x = Rs.41.33
Hence, CP of shirt = Rs.41.33
