Question

the price of a book rupees is 1850 if its price increased by 10% find the new price of the book
​

Answer 1

SOLUTION:-

Given:

The price of a book is increased by 10%.

The price of a book is Rs.1850.

Therefore,

Let the original price be x.

10% of the original price= 10/100 × x

=) The original price increased by 10%

So,

$x + \frac{10x}{100} \\ \\ = > \frac{100x + 10 x}{100} \\ \\ = > \frac{110x}{100}$

According to the question:

$= > \frac{110x}{100} = 1850 \\ \\ = > x = \frac{1850 \times 100}{110} \\ \\ = > x = 16.81 \times 100 \\ \\ = > x = Rs.1681$

Hence,

New price of the book is Rs.1681.
