them? There is a loss of 4% by selling an article for Rs 3200. At what price should it be sold to make a profit of 14 %?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Data:

There is a loss of 4% =Rs.3200

To Find:

the price that the article should be sold to get 14% profit

solution:

fist we should find the correct price of the article

let 'x' be the correct price of the article

$x \times \frac{100 - 4}{100} = 3200$

$x \times \frac{96}{100} = 3200$

$x \times \frac{24}{25} = 3200$

$24x = 3200 \times 25$

$24x = 800$

$x = \frac{800}{24}$

$x = \frac{100}{3}$
