A man expects a profit of 13% on his cost price.If he had a sale of Rs 7,91,000 during the
month, then find his profit?​

Answer 1

Profit = Rs 91,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a man expects a profit of 13% on his cost price.

Also, it is given that he had a sale of Rs 7,91,000 during the  month.

Firstly, Let the Cost Price of article = C.P. = Rs $x$

                    Selling Price of article = S.P. = Rs 7,91,000

Profit Percentage = 13%

Now, as we know that the Profit is always calculated on the cost price of the item.

Also, in case of Profit, the selling price formula is given by;

        Selling Price = Cost Price + Amount of Profit

So,    Rs 7,91,000 = $x$ + 13% of $x$

              7,91,000 = $x + \frac{13}{100}\times x$

              7,91,000 =  $x+0.13x$

                   $1.13x$  =  7,91,000

                       $x=\frac{7,91,000}{1.13}$ = Rs 7,00,000

Hence, the Cost Price of item is Rs 7,00,000.

Now, Profit =  13% of Cost Price

                   =  $\frac{13}{100}\times 7,00,000$

                   =  Rs 91,000
