The number is  -26

1st number (x-4) second number (x)

5(x-4) = 6x + 6

5x -20 = 6x + 6

5x -26 = 6x

-26 = x

Check:

5(-26 -4) = 6(-26) +6

5(-30) = -156 +6

-150 = -150

a shopkeeper sold goods for rs 2400 and made a profit of 25% in the process. find his profit per cent if he had sold his goods f
miv72 [106K]

case 1,

Let the CP be ₹x,

SP = ₹2400

Profit = SP – CP

= 2400 – x

Profit % = {(2400–x)/ x} × 100%

According to the question,

{(2400–x)/ x} × 100 = 25

=> (2400–x)/ x= 25 /100

=> 100(2400–x) = 25x [ cross multiplication]

=> 240000 – 100x = 25x

=> 240000 = 25x + 100x

=> 240000 = 125x

=> 240000/125 = x

=> x = 1920

So, CP = ₹1920

case 2,

SP = ₹2040

Profit = SP – CP

= 2040 – 1920

= ₹120

profit % = 120/1920 × 100%

= 16%

<h3>Thus, his profit would be 16% if he had sold his goods for ₹2040.</h3>
