Question

samar loses 8% by selling a jewelry box for ₹368. what should be his selling price to gain 10%​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given :

Selling price = Rs 368

Loss = 8 %

Find the cost price of an article :-

C.P = (S.P × 100)/(100 - loss)

= (368 × 100)/(100 - 8)

= 36800/92

= 400

So, Cost price of an article = Rs 400

Find the Selling price of an article to gain 10% :-

S.P = C.P + Profit % of C.P

= 400 + 10% of 400

= 400 + 0.10×400

= 400 + 40

= 440

Hence,

The Selling price of an article to gain 10% is Rs 440
