Question

saurabh purchased 20 cricket bats for 12000 rupees and sold them at a gain equal to the selling price of 4 bats. find the selling price of 1 bat​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Now while purchase

Cost of 1 bat = 12000/20  

                     = Rs.600

Now while selling

cost of 4 bats = 600*4

                      = 2400 Rs

therefore selling price of a bat = 2400 Rs

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

CP of 20 bats = 12000/-

CP of 1 bat = 600/-

let the SP of one bat be rs. x

then gain = 4x

SP of 20 bats = 20x

therefore, gain= SP-CP

4x= 20x- 12000

12000= 20x-4x

12000= 16x

x= 750/- is the required answer
