Question

Raju sold a book at a profit of 16%.had he sold it for rs.18 more,20% would have been gained. Find the cost price?

Answer 1

Answer:

900

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C.P of the book = Rs.100

If the gain is 16%, the S.P = 116.

If he had been sold Rs.33 more gain = 20 %

Then, second S. P = 120.

Difference in Selling price = 4.

If Rs, 4 is the difference in S P,cost price = Rs. 100

Then, If the difference in S.P is Rs.18,

cost price = 100/2*18= 50 x 33 = 900

Hence, cost price = 900.
