The correct Answer is:
To find the selling price (SP) based on the cost price (CP) and the gain or loss percentage, we can use the following formulas: 1. **For Gain**: \[ SP = \left( \frac{100 + \text{Gain \%}}{100} \right) \times CP \] 2. **For Loss**: \[ SP = \left( \frac{100 - \text{Loss \%}}{100} \right) \times CP \] Now, let's solve each part step by step. ### (i) CP = Rs. 1650 and Gain = 4% 1. **Identify CP and Gain**: - CP = 1650 - Gain = 4% 2. **Use the formula for SP**: \[ SP = \left( \frac{100 + 4}{100} \right) \times 1650 \] 3. **Calculate**: \[ SP = \left( \frac{104}{100} \right) \times 1650 = 1.04 \times 1650 = 1716 \] **Selling Price = Rs. 1716** --- ### (ii) CP = Rs. 915 and Gain = 6 2/3% 1. **Convert Gain to improper fraction**: - Gain = 6 2/3% = \(\frac{20}{3}\%\) 2. **Identify CP**: - CP = 915 3. **Use the formula for SP**: \[ SP = \left( \frac{100 + \frac{20}{3}}{100} \right) \times 915 \] 4. **Calculate**: - Convert 100 to a fraction with a common denominator: \[ SP = \left( \frac{300 + 20}{300} \right) \times 915 = \left( \frac{320}{300} \right) \times 915 \] - Simplify: \[ SP = \frac{320 \times 915}{300} = \frac{292800}{300} = 976 \] **Selling Price = Rs. 976** --- ### (iii) CP = Rs. 875 and Loss = 12% 1. **Identify CP and Loss**: - CP = 875 - Loss = 12% 2. **Use the formula for SP**: \[ SP = \left( \frac{100 - 12}{100} \right) \times 875 \] 3. **Calculate**: \[ SP = \left( \frac{88}{100} \right) \times 875 = 0.88 \times 875 = 770 \] **Selling Price = Rs. 770** --- ### (iv) CP = Rs. 645 and Loss = 13 1/3% 1. **Convert Loss to improper fraction**: - Loss = 13 1/3% = \(\frac{40}{3}\%\) 2. **Identify CP**: - CP = 645 3. **Use the formula for SP**: \[ SP = \left( \frac{100 - \frac{40}{3}}{100} \right) \times 645 \] 4. **Calculate**: - Convert 100 to a fraction with a common denominator: \[ SP = \left( \frac{300 - 40}{300} \right) \times 645 = \left( \frac{260}{300} \right) \times 645 \] - Simplify: \[ SP = \frac{260 \times 645}{300} = \frac{167700}{300} = 559 \] **Selling Price = Rs. 559** --- ### Summary of Selling Prices: 1. (i) Rs. 1716 2. (ii) Rs. 976 3. (iii) Rs. 770 4. (iv) Rs. 559 ---
