Answer 1

The cost for Tanu bought the toy is : 800

She sold it to a profit of : 10%

HERE WE CAN SAY THAT TANU GOT AN EXTRA AMOUNT OF 10% FROM THE PREVIOUS AMOUNT.

So, 10% of 800 is,

                             (10/100) * 800 = 80

Therefore, she got an amount of 80 rupees of profit.

So, the amount that she sold is 800 + 80 = 880 rupees
