when the wimen sells 90 oranges Rs160 with dicount of 20%,how many oranges she sell by Rs112 with profit of 20%

Fynjy0 [20]

She sold 42 oranges with profit 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

The woman sells 90 oranges by RS.160

This price with discount of 20%

We need to find how many oranges she sell by Rs.112 with profit of 20%

Selling price = cost price - discount ⇒ discount case
Selling price = cost price + profit ⇒ profit case

Assume that cost price of an orange is x

∵ She sells 90 oranges with Rs.160

- Find the selling price of 1 orange by dividing 160 by 90

∴ The selling price of an orange = $\frac{160}{90}=\frac{16}{9}$

∵ She sold them with discount 20%

∵ The cost price of an orange is x

- Find the 20% of x

∵ Discount = 20% × x = $\frac{20}{100}$ × x = 0.2x

- To find the selling price subtract 0.2x from x

∴ The selling price = x - 0.2x

∴ The selling price of an orange = 0.8x

- Equate 0.8x by $\frac{16}{9}$ to find x

∵ 0.8x = $\frac{16}{9}$

- Divide both sides by 0.8

∴ x = $\frac{20}{9}$

Assume that the number of oranges is y

∵ She sell y oranges for Rs.112 with profit 20%

∵ The cost price of an orange is $\frac{20}{9}$

- Find 20% of $\frac{20}{9}$

∵ Profit = 20% × $\frac{20}{9}$ = $\frac{20}{100}.\frac{20}{9}=\frac{4}{9}$

- Add $\frac{4}{9}$ to cost price to find the selling price

∴ The selling price of an orange = $\frac{20}{9}$ + $\frac{4}{9}$

∴ The selling price of an orange = $\frac{24}{9}$

- To find y divide 112 by selling price of an orange

∵ y = 112 ÷ $\frac{24}{9}$

∴ y = 42

She sold 42 oranges with profit 20%

The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 8. The difference between the number and the reversed number is 10 more than the

Vesna [10]

Answer:

The number is 62

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the digits of the number be T and U;

A 2 digit number is represented as: 10T + U

So,

$T + U = 8$

$10T + U - (10U + T) = 10 + 10U + T$

Required

Find the digit

Make U the subject in the first equation

$U = 8 - T$

Substitute 8 - T for U in the second

$10T + U - (10U + T) = 10 + 10U + T$

$10T + 8 - T - (10*(8-T) + T) = 10 + 10(8 - T) + T$

$10T + 8 - T - (80-10T + T) = 10 + 80 - 10T+ T$

$10T + 8 - T -80+10T - T = 10 + 80 - 10T+ T$

Collect Like Terms

$10T + 10T - T- T + 8 -80 = 10 + 80 - 10T+ T$

$18T -72 = 90 - 9T$

$9T + 18T = 90 + 72$

$27T = 162$

$T = 162/27$

$T = 6$

Recall that:

$U = 8 - T$

$U = 8 - 6$

$U = 2$

<em>Hence, the number is 62</em>
