Question

Man brought a tv Rs 6800 how much should be sold to gain 10%
Answer is what

Answer 1

Solutions :-

We have,

Cost Price (C.P) = Rs 6800

Gain % = 10%

Now,

Find the gain on selling TV :-

Gain = Gain% of C.P

= 10% of Rs 6800

= 0.10 × Rs 6800

= Rs 680

Find the Selling price (S.P) :-

S.P = C.P + Profit

= Rs ( 6800 + 680)

= Rs 7480

Hence,

The Selling price of TV is Rs 7480

Answer 2

We are provided with values required to find the exact answer, already.

Since the man has bought the TV for ₹ 6,800,
Cost Price of TV for the man( often abbreviated as CP ) = ₹ 6,800
Since,
The man has to make a profit of 10 %
Profit Percentage ( or Gain Percentage ) = 10 %

We already know that profit is incurred on the cost price so,

Profit = Gain % of Cost Price
Profit = 10 % of ₹ 6800
Profit = 0.1 of ₹ 6800
Profit ( or Gain )= ₹ 680

Now,
We also know that Selling Price ( often abbreviated as SP ) is the sum of the cost price and the gain.
Selling Price of the TV = Profit + Cost Price
SP = ₹ 680 + ₹ 6,800
SP = ₹ 7,480

Hence,
The TV must be sold at ₹ 7,480 to gain a profit of 10 %.
