Question

Rashmi sold an almirah at a loss of 4%. if she had sold it for ₹215 more, she would have made a profit of 1%. find the CP of her almirah ​

Answer 1

Loss percent =4%

CP=SP+ loss% of CP

or, CP=SP+(4*CP)/100

or, CP=SP+CP/25

or, CP-CP/25=SP

or,( 25CP-CP)/25=SP

or,24CP=25SP

24CP/25=SP......eqn 1

If sold it for rs 215 more, (The value of CP remains same)

SP+215=CP+Profit%of CP

or, SP+215=CP+1%OF CP

or, SP+215=CP+CP/100

or, SP+215=101CP/100

or, 100 SP+21500=101CP

Putting value of SP from eqn 1,

or, (24CP/25)100+21500=101 CP

or, 24*4CP+21500=101CP

or, 96CP+21500=101CP

or, 21500=101CP-96CP

or, 21500=5CP

or, CP=21500/5

CP=Rs4300

Thus, CP is Rs 4300.
