Answer:

let cp be x

sp= 115x/100 ---(when 15%gain)

sp = 88x/100------(when 12% loss

according to question

115x/100 - 88x/100 = 81

or, (115x-88x)= 8100

or, 27x = 8100

or, x= 8100/27

x = 300

hence cp is RS 300

mestny [16]
f) 16 - p = 12 minus 12
4 - p = 0 plus p
p = 4
g) 18 - 2p = 6 divide by -2
-9 + p = -3 plus 9
p = 6
h) p x 2 + 4 = 9 divided by 2
p + 2 = 4.5 minus 2
p = 2.5
i) p x 4 - 3 = 1 plus 3
p x 4 = 4 divided by 4
p = 1
