Question

Ramesh purchase a memory card at a price of 625 rupees including the sale tax. the rate of sale tax is 25 percent. of the seller has made a gain of 50 percent. Then find the cost price of the memory card.

Answer 1

Answer:

The Cost Price of the memory card = Rs 312.52

Step-by-step explanation:

S.P of the memory card with taxes = Rs 625

Sales Tax = 25% of 625 = (25/100) * 625 = Rs 156.22

S.P of the memory cards without taxes = 625 - 156.22

                                                              = Rs 468.78

Let the C.P of the memory card = x;

Profit % = 50%

Profit = 50% of x = (50/100) * x

S.P of the memory card = C.P + Profit

468.78 = x + (50/100) * x

46878 = 100x + 50x

=> 150x = 46878

=> x = 46878/150

=> x = Rs 312.52

Therefore, the Cost Price of the memory card = Rs 312.52
