Question

Tinny sold a plot of land at $20\%$ gain to Wimpy. Wimpy sold it to Deepail at $10\%$ profit, If Deepali has to pay $Rs3,30,000$ for the plot, find the $C.P$ of the plot for Tinny.

Answer 1

For wimpy .$(C.P{)}_w=(C.P{)}_T+\frac{20}{100}(C.P{)}_T$

$(C.P{)}_T=C.P$ for Tinny

For Deepali, $(C.P{)}_D=(C.P{)}_W+\frac{10}{100}(C.P{)}_W$

330000=$\frac{110}{100}(C.P{)}_W=\frac{110}{100}\times \frac{120}{100}(C.P{)}_T$

$\Rightarrow (C.P{)}_T=\frac{33\times 10}{11\times 12}=250000$
