CP and the discount is 16% What is the value of x?​

Answer 1

Answer:

the cost price be Rs100 

Then, Marked Price to get 30 %profit   =Rs130

Let x goods be there, then total C.P. =100x

When he sells 21 the of the goods at Rs130, selling price will be for this amount of goods will be S.P.1=21×130×x=Rs65x

Now, Selling price of remaining 4x goods is (100−15)=85 % of Rs130=10085×130=Rs110.50 

Selling price will be for this amount of goods will be S.P.2=41×110.50×x=Rs27.625x

And Selling price of last 4x goods is (100−30)=70 % of Rs130=10070×130=Rs91 

Selling price will be for this amount of goods will be S.P.3=41×91×x=Rs22.75x

So, Total S.P. =Rs65x+Rs27.625x+Rs22.75=Rs115.375x

Profit % on the whole transaction =C.P.S.P−C.P.×100=
