Answer:
40,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Percentage Cost price of jewelry = 100%
Jewelery was sold at loss of 5% = (100%- 5%) = 95%
If sold at 5200 more ; profit made = 8%
That is ; (100% + 8%) = 108%
Difference between loss percentage and profit percentage = change in price sold
(108% - 95%) = 5200
13% = 5200
If ;
0.13 = 5200
The percentage cost price = 100% will be;
0.13 = 5200
1 = x
0.13x = 5200
x = 5200 / 0.13
x = 40,000
Exact form: x = 45/31
Mixed number form: 1 14/31

Answer:
the first number is 3.4 and the second number is 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the two numbers is shown below:
Let us assume the first number be x
And, the second number be y
Now the equations are
5x + 4y = 21
And,
5x + 9y = 16
Now subtract equation 2 from equation 1
-5y = -5
y = 1
And, the x is
5x + 4 = 21
5x = 17
x = 3.4
Hence, the first number is 3.4 and the second number is 1
I believe the answer is B
