Answer 1

Answer:

The two selling prices are at a profit of 4% and 6% respectively. Which essentially means that they are 104% and 106% of the cost price.

Also, we know that the difference is Rs. 3. Difference in percentage is 2%

Using unitary method,

2% = Rs. 3

1% = Rs. 1.5

Therefore, the two selling prices would be :

104*1.5 = Rs.156 and

106*1.5 = Rs. 159

Answer 2

Answer:

CP = 600 RS hope it helps you

Step-by-step explanation:

Let cost price is 100%

Selling coat at profit 4% will be = 100% + 4% = 104% (SP)

Selling coat at profit 6% will be = 100% + 6% = 106% (SP)

Difference in profit = 12

ATQ,

106% - 104% = 12

2% = 12

1% = 12/2

1% = 6

100% = 6 X 100

cp = 600
