Question

the difference between a 13%loss and 11%profit while selling a toy was rupees 108.what should be the selling price of the toy if the profit earned was 12%?

Answer 1

Let Cost Price be x

According to Question,

(111x/100) - (87x/100) = 108

This implies, (111x - 87x)/100 = 108

So, 24x = 10800

Thus ,x,Cost price = (10800)/24 = Rs.450

Profit earned is 12%

Therefore, 450×12% = 450×(12/100) = Rs.54

As we know,Selling Price = Cost price + Profit

So, Selling Price = 450 + 54 = Rs.504
