The correct Answer is:
To find the cost price of the plasma TV for Yogita, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Selling Prices and Profit Percentages Yogita sells the TV to Shyamla at a 20% gain. This means that if Yogita's cost price (CP) is \( x \), then the selling price (SP) for Yogita is: \[ SP_{Yogita} = CP + 20\% \text{ of } CP = x + 0.2x = 1.2x \] ### Step 2: Shyamla's Selling Price Shyamla sells the TV to Deepa at a 10% profit. Therefore, if Shyamla's cost price is the same as Yogita's selling price, then: \[ SP_{Shyamla} = CP_{Shyamla} + 10\% \text{ of } CP_{Shyamla} = 1.2x + 0.1(1.2x) = 1.2x + 0.12x = 1.32x \] ### Step 3: Set Up the Equation with Deepa's Price We know that Deepa pays ₹33,000 for the TV. Therefore, we can set up the equation: \[ 1.32x = 33,000 \] ### Step 4: Solve for Yogita's Cost Price To find \( x \), we divide both sides of the equation by 1.32: \[ x = \frac{33,000}{1.32} \] Calculating this gives: \[ x = 25,000 \] ### Conclusion Thus, the cost price of the plasma TV for Yogita is ₹25,000. ---
