Answer 2

Answer:

Therefore Cost price of the bike is $5000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Cost price of the bike be x

Given profit

$= x \times \frac{100 + 12}{100} = x \times \frac{112}{100} \: rupees$

Now given If he charged $150 more then his profit would be 15%

15 % profit =

$x \times \frac{100 + 15}{100} = x \times \frac{115}{100} \: rupees$

According to question,

$x \times \frac{115}{100} - x \times \frac{112}{100} = 150 \\ x( \frac{115}{100} - \frac{112}{100} ) = 150 \\ x \times \frac{115 - 112}{100} = 150 \\ x \times \frac{3}{100} = 150 \\ x = 150 \times \frac{100}{3} \\ x = 5000$

Therefore Cost price of the bike is $5000.
