Sreenivas sells a table to Shiva at 10% profit and Shiva sells it to Mahesh at 10% loss. At what price did sreenivas purchase the table if mahesh paid rs.2178?

​

Answer 1

Answer:

now Shiva sells it to mahesh at 10% loss. so Shivas selling price to mahesh is 11x/10- (11x/10)*10%= 99x/100. now, 99x/100= 2178
