Ram sold a motorcycle for ₹70000 at 25% profit. For what price should he sell a motorcycle to gain 30% profit ?

Options:

₹72,900

₹72,800

₹72,600

₹72,700

Correct Answer:

₹72,800

Explanation:

Selling price of the morotcycle = 70000 

Profit = 25%

Then the cost price of the article = 70000 × \(\frac{100}{125}\) = 56000

Required profit = 30%

Then the selling price of the motorcycle = 130% of the CP

130% of 56000 = ₹72,800
