Question

radhika buys a sofa set for 12000. she sells it to monika at a loss of 5%. monika sells it to sarita for 12540. find the gain per cent for monika. how to solve this sum

Answer 1

loss of radhika = 5/100*12000
=600
therefore the selling price of sofa to monika is 12000-600
=11400
now monika sells it at a price of 12540
to sarita
gain price=sp-cp
=12540-11400
=1140
gain %= profit/cp×100
=1140/11400×100
=10%
I hope it may help u
