Question

Sandeep sells a television at a loss of 8%.if he had sold it for rs 3360more ,he would have gained 6% for how much did sandeep buy it.
Rs aggrawal

Answer 1

Let CP be X... So he had sold it at 8% loss means at 92% of CP(x) and if he sold it at 3360 rs more he got 6% gain means 106%,of x

92/100(x) +3360=106/100(x)

x(106/100-92/100)=3360

14/100x=3360

X=336000/14

Rs 24000 is CP
