Question

simran bought pet food of  Rs56000 she then sold 1/3rd of it incurring a loss of 40% what profit she must earn on rest of the suppliesto nullify this loss

Answer 1

simran bought pet food of  Rs56000 she then sold 1/3rd of it incurring a loss of 40%
so, 1/3 rd of 56000 = 56000/3 = 18666.6667
1/3 rd supplies with loss = 18666.6667 - 40% of 18666.6667 = 18666.6667 - 7466.6667 = 11200

she must earn on rest of the supplies to nullify this loss of 74666.6667

let x be profit to nullify 1/3 supplies of 40% loss

so, remaining supplies = 56000 - 18666.6667 = 37333.3333

so, x% =(74666.6667/37333.333) × 100%
x% = 0.20 × 100%
x% = 20%

so, simran should sold the remaining supplies of 37333.333 rupees at 20% profit to nullify the loss of 40%
