Mukesh sells two shirts. The cost price of the first shirt is equal to the selling price of the second shirt. The first shirt is sold at a profit of 30% and the second shirt is sold at a loss of 30%. What is the ratio of the selling price of the first shirt to the cost price of the second shirt?
Let cost price of 1st shirt = Rs. $$100x$$
Profit % = 30%
=> Selling price of 1st shirt = $$100x+(\frac{30}{100}\times100x)=Rs.$$ $$130x$$
Also, selling price of 2nd shirt = Rs. $$100x$$
Loss % = 30%
=>Â Cost price of 2nd shirt = $$\frac{100x}{(100-30)}\times100=Rs.$$ $$\frac{1000x}{7}$$
$$\therefore$$ Required ratio = $$\frac{130x}{\frac{1000x}{7}}$$
= $$(13\times7):100=91:100$$
