Answer 2

Answer:

The selling price is RS.6237.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Ranjan bought a second hand scooter for rupees 6000 . he spent rupees 300 on its repairs and sold it to vineet at a profit of 10%. vineet sold the scooter to mukesh at a loss of 10%.

To find : At what price did mukesh buy the scooter ?

Solution :

(Ranjan)

CP of the scooter = ₹6000

Overhead expenses = ₹300

Actual CP = ₹6300

Profit% = 10%

Profit = 10% of ₹6300

$P= 10\% \times 6300\\\\P = \frac{10}{100}\times6300\\\\P=Rs.630$

SP = CP + Profit

SP= ₹6300 + ₹630

SP= ₹6930

(Vineet)

CP of the scooter = ₹6930

Loss% = 10%

Loss = 10% of ₹6930

$L= 10\% \times 6930\\\\L = \frac{10}{100}\times6930\\\\L=Rs.693$

SP = CP - Loss

SP = ₹6930 - ₹693

SP = ₹6237

Therefore, The selling price is Rs.6237 mukesh buy the scooter.
