Question

Sandeep sold a television at a loss of 8 % . If he had sold it for ₹ 3360 more he would have gained 6 % . For how much Sandeep buy it​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the C.P be x

Now if loss = 8%

S.P =

$\frac{C.P(100 - l\%)}{100} \\ = \frac{x(100 - 8)}{100} \\ = \frac{92x}{100}$

If Profit% =6

SP =

$\frac{C.P(100 + p\%)}{100} \\ = \frac{x(100 + 6)}{100} \\ = \frac{106x}{100}$

Now according to the question,

$\frac{106x}{100} - \frac{92}{100} = 3360 \\ = > \frac{14x}{100} = 3360 \\ = > x = \frac{3360 \times 100}{14} \\ = > x = 24000$

Thus, Sandeep has bought it for Rs 24000
