Rahm purchased the used car for Rs 70,000.
Given,
Rahm purchased a used car and sold it at a 5% profit to Sarvesh
Sarvesh spent Rs. 6500 on repairing and then he sold it on 10% profit to Mohan
Mohan sold it to Rita at a 6% loss
Rita spent Rs. 1280 repairing and sold it to her relatives without any profit or loss at Rs. 84000
To Find,
Price at which Rahm purchased the car
Solution,
Let the price at which Rahm purchased the car be 'x'
Cost at which Sarvesh purchased = x + 5% of x
Cost at which Sarvesh purchased = x + (5/100 * x)
Cost at which Sarvesh purchased = x + 0.05x
Cost at which Sarvesh purchased = 1.05x
Amount spent by Sarvesh on repairing = 6500
The new cost of car = 1.05x + 6500
Cost at which Mohan purchased = (1.05x + 6500) + 10% of (1.05x + 6500)
Cost at which Mohan purchased = (1.05x + 6500) + 10/100 * (1.05x + 6500)
Cost at which Mohan purchased = (1.05x + 6500) + 0.1(1.05x + 6500)
Cost at which Mohan purchased = (1.05x + 6500) + 0.105x + 650
Cost at which Mohan purchased = 1.155x + 7150
Cost at which Rita purchased = (1.155x + 7150) - 6% of (1.155x + 7150)
Cost at which Rita purchased = (1.155x + 7150) - 6/100 * (1.155x + 7150)
Cost at which Rita purchased = (1.155x + 7150) - 0.06(1.155x + 7150)
Cost at which Rita purchased = (1.155x + 7150) - 0.0693x + 429
Cost at which Rita purchased = 1.0857x + 6721
Amount spent by Rita on repairing = 1280
The new cost of car = 1.0857x + 6721 + 1280
The new cost of car = 1.0857x + 8001
Price at which Rita sold = 1.0857x + 8001
Also,
1.0857x + 8001 = 84000
1.0857x = 75999
x =
x = Rs 70,000
Hence, Rahm purchased the used car for Rs 70,000.
