Question

Nidhi purchased two sarees for 2,150 each. She sold one saree at a loss of 8%
and the other at a gain. If she had a gain of 1,230 on the whole transaction, find
the selling price of the second saree.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The selling price of second saree is Rs.3552.

Step-by-step explanation:

CP of saree 1 = Rs.2150

Loss = 8%

SP = CP - Loss

SP = 2150-\frac{8}{100} \times 21502150−

100

8

×2150

SP of saree 1 = 1978

CP of saree 2 is Rs.2150

We are given that she had a gain of Rs 1230 on the whole transaction .

(SP of saree 1 +SP of saree 2)-(CP of saree 1 + CP of saree 2 ) = 1230

(1978 +SP of saree 2)-(2150+ 2150) = 1230

(1978 +SP of saree 2)-4300= 1230

(1978 +SP of saree 2)= 1230+4300

SP of saree 2 = 1230+4300 - 1978 = 3552

Hence selling price of second saree is Rs.3552.
