Question

the price of sugar is increased by 10% if the new price is rs 9.35 per kg find the old price

Answer 1

hey mate
let the price of suger be x
then 110% of x=9.35
(110/100)× x=9.35
so, x=9.35×(10/11)
hence x=8.5
so, the old price of suger is rs 8.5

Answer 2

Let the price of sugar be X

ATQ

X+10% of X = 9.35

X+10x/100 = 9.35

100x + 10x/100 = 9.35

110x/100 = 9.35

X= 9.35×100/110 = 8.50 per kg
