-2x + 8 = -4x + 1
- 1 -2x
7 = -6x
—
-6x
7/-6 or -7/6
The guy above did you dirty
I hope this helps you
6740/10=674
6740/3=2,246666
The answer is 48, because 6*8=48, 16*3 = 48, 24*2 = 48.
See, in these type of questions always first assume your original price to be x. And now try to write whatever information is given to you.
Now, you have that it has been sold for 12% profit, so basically it is sold at. (1 + (12/100))x = 1.12x
Now it is given that if it had been sold for 33₹ more. I.e. if it had been sold at. 1.12x + 33
Net gain would have been 14%.
So gain of 14%, means the cost to be (1+(14/100))x = 1.14x
And basically both 1.12x +33 and 1.14x are final costs, so
1.14x = 1.12x + 3
=> 1.14x - 1.12x = 3
=> 0.02x = 3
=> x = 3÷0.02
=> x= 1650₹
So original cost is 1650₹.
Hope you understand the solution and the way to tackle these type of problems if not then let me know.
hope it helps
pls mark my anwers as brainiest
