Question

A dealer buys an old car for $Rs.80,000$. He repairs it and sells it at an increase of $10\%$. What is the selling price of the car?

Answer 1

Cost price of car$=$Rs. $80,000$

Car sold at an increase$=10\%$

$10\%$ of $80,000$

$=\frac{10}{100}\times 80,000$

$=8000$

$\therefore$ Selling price of car$=$Rs. $(80,000+8000)$

$=$Rs. $88,000$

$\therefore$ S.P of car$=$Rs. $88,000$.
