Kanchan bought a ring and sold it to Mohan at a profit of 5%. Mohan sold it to Pramod at a loss of 25%.

Solution / समाधान

Let the cost price of the ring bought by Kanchan be ₹x.
Kanchan sold the ring to Mohan at a profit of 5%.
So, Mohan’s buying price
$= x \times \frac{105}{100}$
Mohan sold it to Pramod at a loss of 25%.
Therefore, Pramod’s buying price
$= x \times \frac{105}{100} \times \frac{75}{100}$
Given that Pramod paid ₹3150,
$x \times \frac{105}{100} \times \frac{75}{100} = 3150$
$x \times \frac{7875}{10000} = 3150$
$x = \frac{3150 \times 10000}{7875}$
= 4000

Correct Answer / सही उत्तर:

👉 4000
