Question

if sp=56 and gain percent is 43 find cp

Answer 1

GIVEN,

SP = RS 56
GAIN % = 43%

CP=?
CP = SP × 100/100+GAIN %
CP = 56 × 100/143

= 5600/143
= RS.39.160

Answer 2

SP=56
Gain %=43%
Let CP=X
a/q
X+(x×43%)=56(means sp is cp + gain on cp)
=x+(x×43/100)=56
x+43x/100=56
143x/100=56
x=56×100/143
x=39.16
CP=39.6
