Question

Umang gained 20% by selling a watch for rs 2400 then find the cost price. if he gain 30% at what price should have he sold it.​

Answer 1

Answer: Rs. 3120

Explanation:

So...

rs. 2400 is the cost as of when it was overpriced by 20%

10%=240

20%= (240+240)= 480

Rs. 2400-480= Rs. 1920 which is the original price before the 20% was added making the price 2400 INR

Now we need to find what 30% is to find out the price if 30% was added to the original cost

so...

If 10%=240

30%=(240+240+240)= Rs. 720

Rs. 2400+720= Rs. 3120

Rs. 3120 is the price the watch was sold at when 30% was added onto the original price and the owner gained 30%.
