Answer» P sold his carpet to R at 10% profit. We know, Selling price = Cost Price × (1 + (Profit %)/100) Cost price for R = Selling price for P = RS. 600 × (1+10/100) = Rs. 660 Then, R sold the carpet to S at 10% loss. We know, Selling price = Cost Price × (1 – (Loss %)/100) Cost price for S for first carpet = Selling price for R = Rs. 660 × (1 – 10/100) = Rs. 594 Q sold his carpet to S at 15% loss. Cost price for S for SECOND carpet = Selling price for Q = Rs. 600 × (1 – 15/100) = Rs. 510 ∴ Price at which S bought the two carpets = Rs. 594 + Rs. 510 = Rs. 1104

Answer»

P sold his carpet to R at 10% profit.

We know, Selling price = Cost Price × (1 + (Profit %)/100)

Cost price for R = Selling price for P = RS. 600 × (1+10/100) = Rs. 660

Then, R sold the carpet to S at 10% loss.

We know, Selling price = Cost Price × (1 – (Loss %)/100)

Cost price for S for first carpet = Selling price for R = Rs. 660 × (1 – 10/100) = Rs. 594

Q sold his carpet to S at 15% loss.

Cost price for S for SECOND carpet = Selling price for Q = Rs. 600 × (1 – 15/100) = Rs. 510

∴ Price at which S bought the two carpets = Rs. 594 + Rs. 510 = Rs. 1104
