Answer 1

let Raju spend rupees x for extra fitting
total money spend by him= 36000+x
ATQ
(36000+x)+10%(36000+x)=44000
11/10(36000+x)=44000
396000+11x=440000
11x=44000
x=4000
therefore he spend 4000 for fittingd

Answer 2

Raju spent Rs. 4000 for the extra fittings

Given :

• Raju bought a motorcycle for ₹ 36,000 and then bought some extra fittings to make it perfect and good looking.

• He sold the bike at a profit of 10% and he got a selling price of ₹ 44,000

To find :

The amount of money Raju spent for the extra fittings

Solution :

Step 1 of 2 :

Form the equation to calculate amount of money Raju spent for the extra fittings

Let amount of money Raju spent for the extra fittings = Rs. x

Raju bought a motorcycle for ₹ 36,000

∴ Cost price of the motorcycle

= ₹ (36,000 + x)

By the given condition

$\displaystyle \sf (36000 + x) \times \frac{110}{100} = 44000$

Step 2 of 2 :

Calculate amount of money Raju spent for the extra fittings

$\displaystyle \sf (36000 + x) \times \frac{110}{100} = 44000$

$\displaystyle \sf{ \implies }(36000 + x) = 44000 \times \frac{100}{110}$

$\displaystyle \sf{ \implies }(36000 + x) = 40000$

$\displaystyle \sf{ \implies }x = 40000 - 36000$

$\displaystyle \sf{ \implies }x = 4000$

Hence Raju spent Rs. 4000 for the extra fittings
