Given cost price of scooter = Rs 9800

money spent on repairing = Rs 600

total spended money on scooter

= Rs 9800 + Rs 600 = Rs 10,400

since. , he sold it at a profit of 8 %

then, find the profit :
________________
profit = 8 % of 10400 = 8 × 10400 /100

profit = Rs 832

selling price of scooter

= Rs 10400 + Rs 832 = Rs 11232

Find the total cost:

Purchased price = Rs 9800

Repair cost = Rs 600

Total cost = 9800 + 600 = Rs 10,400


Find the gain:

Gain = 8% of Rs 10400

Gain = 0.08 x 10400 = Rs 832


Find the selling price:

Selling Price = Total cost + Gain

Selling Price = 10400 + 832 = Rs 11,232


Answer: Selling price is Rs 11,232 and the gain is Rs 832
