Question

If A shopkeeper sold a Radio at 336 rs and gain 5 persent profit find c. p​

Answer 1

If the shopkeeper sold the radio for 336 rs and gained a 5% profit, then the cost price (c.p.) of the radio can be calculated as follows:

Let x be the cost price of the radio. Since the shopkeeper gained a 5% profit, we can write the equation: x + 0.05x = 336 Solving for x, we get: x(1 + 0.05) = 336 x = 336/1.05 x = 320

So, the cost price (c.p.) of the radio is 320 rs.
