Question

Leela sold her gold necklace at a profit of 7%. If she had sold it for Rs 294 more, she would have got 10% profit. Find the cost price. Please give the answer fast.

Answer 1

Solution;-
Let the cost price of the necklace be 'x' Rs.
The selling price at 7 % = x + (x*7/100)
= x + 7x/100
= 107x/100
And,
Selling price at 10 % profit = x + (x*10/100)
= x + 10x/100
= 110x/100
Now, according to the question.
110x/100 - 107x/100 = 294
3x/100 = 294
3x = 294*100
x = 29400/3
x = 9800
So, the cost price of the necklace is Rs. 9800.

ANS :- Let the CP of necklace be x rupees.

SP at 7%=x+(x×7/100)
=x+7x/100
=107x/100

SP at 10% profit =x+(x×10/100)
=x+10x/100
=110x/100

ACCORDING TO THE QUESTION‚

110x/100-107x/100=294

3x/100=294

3x=294×100

x=29400/3

x=9800

•°•Your answer is 9800.
