A Shopkeeper Loses 15%,if An Article Is Sold For Rs. 102. What Should Be The Selling Price Of The Article To Gain 20%?

Answer»

<P>GIVEN that SP = Rs. 102 and loss = 15%

CP = (100(SP))/(100 - 15%) = (100 * 102)/85 = Rs. 120

To get 20% profit, New SP = [(100 + p %) CP]/100

= (120 * 120)/100

= Rs. 144

Given that SP = Rs. 102 and loss = 15%

CP = (100(SP))/(100 - 15%) = (100 * 102)/85 = Rs. 120

To get 20% profit, New SP = [(100 + p %) CP]/100

= (120 * 120)/100

= Rs. 144
