A Bottle Is Sold At A Loss Of 9%. Had It Sold For Rs. 15 More, A Profit Of 25/2% Would Have Gained. What Is The Cost Price Of The Bottle (approx)?

Answer»

Let the COST price of the bottle = Rs. 100 

Selling price of the bottle = Rs. 100 - Rs. 9 = Rs. 91 

Then, from the given DATA

=> 112 (1/2) - 91 = 15 

=> 21 (1/2) = 15 

=> 43 = 15 

Then 100 = ? 

1500/43 = 34.885 =~ 35 

HENCE, the cost price of the bottle = Rs. 35

Let the cost price of the bottle = Rs. 100 

Selling price of the bottle = Rs. 100 - Rs. 9 = Rs. 91 

Then, from the given data, 

=> 112 (1/2) - 91 = 15 

=> 21 (1/2) = 15 

=> 43 = 15 

Then 100 = ? 

1500/43 = 34.885 =~ 35 

Hence, the cost price of the bottle = Rs. 35
