Question

the cost of a bedsheet is rs. 550. the price is increased after 3 months by 10% . find the cost of bed sheet now​

Answer 1

Given:

The cost of a bedsheet is rs. 550. the price is increased after 3 months by 10%.

To find:

Find the cost of bed sheet now.

Solution:

Cost of a bedsheet = Rs 550

Increase in price now = 10%

                                     =550×$\frac{10}{100}$

                                      =Rs 55

The cost of the bed sheet now is = Rs 550 + Rs55

                                                        = Rs605

So the cost of the bed sheet now is Rs605

Answer 2

Given that,

The cost of bedsheet before increment Rs550.

Price is increased by 10% after 3 months,

Find,

The cost of bed sheet after increased by 10%

So the change in price by 10% will be as shown below,

$=550*\frac{10}{100}$

Now solving the above equation we get,

$Rs.55/-$

Thus the 10% of 550 is 55,

So the cost of bed sheet after increment by 10% will be,

$=550+55\\=605$

Hence the cost of bed sheet after increment by 10% is Rs.$605.$
