▪☆Answered by Rohith kumar maths dude: -

☆☆Let x be the cost price of cycle

When cycle is sold at a gain of 14%

=x+14x/100

=114x/100

▪And then,

☆☆When a solution is sold at a gain of 10%

=x+10x/100

=110x/100

▪Next,

☆☆By subtracting two equations we get,

114x /100 -110x/100

4x/100=260

x=260×100/4

x=6500.

☆☆Therefore the cost price of cycle is Rs.6500.

☆Hope it helps u mate
