Question

pinki Sell bag for rupees 800 and incurs a loss of 4% .at what price should she have sold the bag to earn a profit of 4% ​

Answer 1

Let x be the Cost Price

Therefore,

x - 4% x = 800

x - 4x/ 100 = 800

96x = 80000

12x = 10000

x = 833.33

C.P = Rs. 833.33

For earning 4% profit,

C.P = 833.33 + 33.33

C.P = Rs. 866.66
