Question

Rita bought a scooter for 53000 and sold it at a profit of 12 percentage. How much money did she get for it?

Answer 1

$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{CP}=\mathrm{Rs}53000 \\ \mathrm{Profit}\%=12\% \\ \mathrm{Profit}\%=\left[\frac{\mathrm{Profit}}{\mathrm{CP}}\times 100\right]\% \\ \Rightarrow 12=\left[\frac{\mathrm{Profit}}{53000}\times 100\right] \\ \Rightarrow \mathrm{Profit}=6360 \\ \Rightarrow \mathrm{SP}-\mathrm{CP}=6360 \\ \Rightarrow \mathrm{SP}-53000=6360 \\ \Rightarrow \mathrm{SP}=53000+6360=\mathrm{Rs}59360 \end{gathered}$$
