Question 60

Salma buys an article and then sells it for $$₹ 810.$$ If she loses 10%, then at what price should she sell it to gain 4%?

Solution

Given,

Selling Price of the article = $$₹ 810$$

Loss% = 10%

Let the Cost Price of the article = C.P

$$=$$>  $$\frac{90}{100}\text{C.P}$$ = $$810$$

$$=$$>  $$\text{C.P}=₹ 900$$

When gain is 4% then

Selling Price of the article = $$\frac{104}{100}\text{C.P}=\frac{104}{100}\times900=₹ 936$$

Hence, the correct answer is Option B
