Question : 35 of 120

Marks: +1, -0

Mr. Kiran sold a bus for ₹ 18700 at a loss of 15%. At what price should the bus be sold to get a profit of 15%?

₹ 25,523
₹ 25,522
₹ 25,300
₹ 25,521

Solution:

(3) SP = ₹ 18700
Loss % = 15%
Let CP be x.
⇒ Loss =

(15x)/100

18700 = x -

(15x)/100

[SP = CP –Loss]

(18700 × 100)/85

= x ⇒ 22000= CP

{ 15 } /{ 100 } × 22000

= 22000 + 3300

= ₹ 25300
