Question

Sohail bought a plot of land foss ₹96000.
He sold 2/5 of it at a loss of 6%. At what profit per cent should he sell the remaining part of to get a profit of 10% on the whole​

Answer 1

Answer:

Solution:

Given : C.P. of the land = Rs. 96000

C.P. of the 2/5th part of the land = 2/5 x 96000

Rs. 38400

Loss on the sale of 2/5th part of land = 6% S.P of the 2/5th part of land = {(100-6)

38400/100}

(94 x 38400)/100

94 x 384 = Rs. 36096 Total gain = 10 %

S.P. of the whole land = {(100+10) x 96000/100}

110 x 960

S.P. of the whole land = Rs. 105600

S.P. of the remaining part of the land i.e. 3/5th part = 105600 - 36096 = Rs. 69504

C.P. of the remaining part of land = (3x96000)/5 = Rs. 57600

Gain percentage of the remaining sold part of

land

= ((69504 - 57600) x 100}/5760o

(11904 x100)/57600

= 20.67 %
