Question

Answer 1

Answer:

∴ Mohan should sell a TV at Rs. $10000$ to make a profit of $25$%.

Step-by-step explanation:

• In context to question asked,
• We have to find the selling price of a TV to make a profit of $25$%​.
• It is given that, Mohan bought a second hand TV.
• Cost price of a TV = Rs. $7500$
• He spent Rs. $500$ on its repair.

• So, total cost price of a TV = $(7500+500) =$ Rs. $8000$

• Now,

To find the selling price of a TV to make a profit of $25$%​, we have to calculate $25$% of cost price of a TV.

         Selling price = $25$% of cost price of a TV+ cost price

                            = $\frac{25}{100} \times 8000+8000$

                            = $25\times 80$ + $8000$

                            = $2000+8000$

                            = Rs. $10000$

• ∴ Mohan should sell a TV at Rs. $10000$ to make a profit of $25$%.

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer:

∴ Mohan should sell a TV at Rs.  to make a profit of %.

Step-by-step explanation:

In context to question asked,

We have to find the selling price of a TV to make a profit of %​.

It is given that, Mohan bought a second hand TV.

Cost price of a TV = Rs.  

He spent Rs.  on its repair.

So, total cost price of a TV =  Rs.

        Selling price = % of cost price of a TV+ cost price

                           =  

                           =  +
