Step-by-step explanation:
because a lady bought air conditioner of 15200
minus 300
S O L U T I O N :
[tex]\underline{\bf{Given\::}}[/tex]
[tex]\underline{\bf{Explanation\::}}[/tex]
Total cost price of an air conditioner = Bought + Spent
Total cost price of an air conditioner = Rs.15200 + Rs.300
Total cost price of an air conditioner = Rs.15500
We direct using formula of the Selling price when become profit%;
[tex]\boxed{\bf{Selling\:price,(S.P.) =\bigg( \frac{100 + profit\%}{100}\bigg) \times C.P.}}[/tex]
A/q
[tex]\mapsto\tt{S.P. = \bigg(\dfrac{100+profit\:\%}{100}\bigg) \times C.P.}[/tex]
[tex]\mapsto\tt{S.P. = \bigg(\dfrac{100+15}{100}\bigg) \times 15500}[/tex]
[tex]\mapsto\tt{S.P. = \dfrac{115}{\cancel{100}}\times 155\cancel{00}}[/tex]
[tex]\mapsto\tt{S.P. = Rs.(115 \times 155)}[/tex]
[tex]\mapsto\bf{S.P. = Rs.17825}[/tex]
Thus,
The selling price Rs.17825 should sell to get a gain of 15% .
