Question

Raju sold a tv at a loss of 12 percentage. If he had sold it for 3600 rs more,he would have got a profit of 18 percentage,fond the cost price ​

Answer 1

let CP be x rs

loss = 12%

SP =(100 - 12)% of x

=88% of x =0.88x

new gain =18%

new SP =118% of x = 1.18x

difference between both SP =1.18x-0.88x

=0.3x

$\: According \: to \: question \\ </p><p> 0.3x =3600 \\ x \: \: = 3600 \div 0.3 \\ x \: \: = 12000 \: rs \: \: \: \: answer$
