Answer 1

Answer:

a)SP of a bag =Rs1368

Loss=5%

Therefore, CP of the bag=

1368×5/100

=342/5

=68.4

(1368+68.4)=Rs1436.4

If she sold the bag for Rs1512.31,then

1512.31 greater than 1436.4

Hence, profit=

(1512.31-1436.4)=Rs75.91

profit%=profit /CP×100

=75.91/1436.4×100

=5.28%

Answer 2

SP of a bag =Rs1368

Loss=5%

Therefore, CP of the bag=

1368×5/100

=342/5

=68.4

(1368+68.4)=Rs1436.4

If she sold the bag for Rs1512.31,then  

1512.31 greater than 1436.4

Hence, profit=  (1512.31-1436.4)=Rs75.91

profit%= profit /CP×100

= 75.91/1436.4×100

= 5.28%
