gain percent = (selling price - cost price )/cost price * 100
= (5.58 - 4.35)/4.35 * 100 = 28.27 %
profit needed = 171
let number of books be = n
profit = n * (selling price - buying price) = 171
n = 171/1.23 = 139 approx.
gain %: 171/(139 * 4.35) * 100 = 28.28 %
= (5.58 - 4.35)/4.35 * 100 = 28.27 %
profit needed = 171
let number of books be = n
profit = n * (selling price - buying price) = 171
n = 171/1.23 = 139 approx.
gain %: 171/(139 * 4.35) * 100 = 28.28 %
