The catalogue price of a laptop is Rs.43200. If it is sold at a discount of 16% of the catalogue price, a gain of 26% is made. Find the gain or loss per cent if it is sold for Rs.9000 below the catalogue price.

योग

उत्तर

Given that the catalogue price of the laptop = Rs.43200
S.P. after the discount
= Rs.43200 -Rs. `(16)/(100) xx 43200`
= Rs.43200 - Rs.6912
= Rs.36288
C.P. = S.P. - Profit
= Rs.36288 - Profit
So, Profit%
= `"profit"/"C.P." xx 100`

⇒ 26 = `"profit"/(36288 - "profit") xx 100`
⇒ 26(36288 -  Profit) = profit x 100
⇒ 943488 - 26 profit = 100 profit
⇒ 94388 = 126 profit
⇒ profit = `(943488)/(126)`
⇒ profit = Rs.7488
So, C.P. = Rs.36288 - Rs.7488
= Rs.28800
If S.P. = Rs.43200 - Rs.9000
= Rs.34200
Since, S.P. > C.P., so again was made
= Rs.34200 - Rs.28800
= Rs.5400
Profit%
= `(5400)/(28800) xx 100`
= 18.75%
Hence, the gainpercent would be 18.75%.

After offering discount of 10% on marked price, a customer gets total discount of 17 rupees. To find the cost price for the customer, fill in the following boxes with appropriate numbers and complete the activity.

Suppose, marked price of the item = 100 rupees

Therefore, for customer that item costs `square` - `square`  = 90 rupees

Hence, when the discount is `square` then the selling price is `square` rupees. 

Suppose when the discount is `square` rupees, the selling price is x rupees.

∴ `x/square=square/square`

∴ x = `(squarexxsquare)/square`

∴ x = `square`

∴ the customer will get the item for 153 rupees.
