Question

A company used $75\%$ of its profits to buy new machinery and raw materials. If this amounted to $$ find the total profit of the company.

Answer 1

Let the total profit be $x$.

Given $\frac{75}{100}\times x=85071$

$\Rightarrow x=85071\times \frac{100}{75}=1,13,428$.

The total profit of the company is $1,13,428$.
