Question

If a man were to sell his T.V set for 7200, he would have lost 25%. For what price must he sell it to​

Answer 1

Explanation

S.P of a t.v = rs 7200

Loss % = 25%

Therefore, C.P = S.P (100/100-loss)

=7200(100/100-25)

=7200 x 100/75

=9600

So,now C.P = 9600

Profit% = 25%

Therefore, S.P = C.P (100+profit/100)

=9600(100+25/100)

=9600 x 125/100

=12000

So,the price he should sell to gain 25%

=12000

Hope it helps...!!!
