Answer 1

Answer:

⇒Sandeep sold the television for Rs 3360 

⇒He gained , when he sold = 6 %

⇒He losses, when he sold = 8 %

We need to find the cost price of the television ??

Assume , cost price f television as -  x

Now , let us frame the equation as per to question ,

( 100 + 6 %  )  x  -  ( 100 - 8 % ) =  3360 ( A. T . Q )

\frac{106}{100} x - \frac{92}{100} = Rs.3360100106x−10092=Rs.3360

\frac{14}{100} x = 336010014x=3360

x = Rs 24,000x=Rs24,000

→ Therefore , Cost price of television is Rs 24, 000
