Question

On selling an article for 520, a shopkeeper suffered a loss of 130. Find his profil
should he
or loss percent if he sells the article for 728.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the price of 1st item is x

Then for 2nd 520 - x

Profit and loss of both items are same

Then,

x×16100−(520−x)×10100=0⇒16x=(520−x)10⇒26x=5200⇒x=200CP=520−200=320SP=320×90100=288
