Question

. On selling a table for $ 987, Ron loses 6%. For how much did he purchase it?

Answer 1

Answer:

Hence, Ron purchased the table for $ 1050.

Step-by-step explanation:

SP of the table = $ 987, loss % = 6%.  

Therefore, CP of the table = {100/(100 - loss %) × SP}

                                         = $ {100/(100 - 6) × 987}  

                                         = $ (100/94) × 987

                                         = $ 1050

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1050 would be the cost in which ramesh parchased it

let the cp be x

sp=cp-loss

987=x-6/100x

x=1050
