1.	133. A shopkeeper sold a TV set for *17940, with adiscount of 8% and gained 19.6%. If no discount isallowed, then what will be his gain per cent?
Answer» Discount = 8% & S.P.= Rs.17,940 Therefore, M.P. = 17940/0.92 = Rs.19500 Now, gain % = 19.6% => C.P. = 17940/1196 = Rs.15000 MP - CP = Rs.4500 Hence gain % = (4500/15000) ×100 = 30%

Answer»

Discount = 8% & S.P.= Rs.17,940

Therefore, M.P. = 17940/0.92 = Rs.19500

Now, gain % = 19.6%

=> C.P. = 17940/1196 = Rs.15000

MP - CP = Rs.4500

Hence gain % = (4500/15000) ×100 = 30%
