If a man were to sell his home theatre system for ₹14,400, he would lose 25%. But if he wants to gain 20%, the item should be sold for: |
₹ 23,040 ₹ 23,000 ₹ 22,960 ₹ 23,300 |
₹ 23,040 |
Selling price at 25% loss = 14,400 Gain wanted = 20% C.P = 14,400 × \(\frac{4}{3}\) C.P = 19,200 Hence, C.P = Rs.19,200 Now, S.P at 20% gain \(\frac{6}{5}\) × 19,200 Rs. = 23,040 |
