Answer 2

She should sell at Rs.549 to make a profit of 8%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the cost price

Loss% = 5%

SP = 475

SP = CP-Loss

475=x-0.05x

475 = 0.95x

$\frac{475}{0.95}=x$

500=x

We are supposed to find At what price should she sell them to make a profit of 8%.

So, CP = 500

Profit% = 8%

SP = CP+Profit

SP=500+0.08(500)

SP=540

Hence She should sell at Rs.549 to make a profit of 8%.
