manju bought a second hand cycle for rupees 720 and spend rupees 30 on gettting it repair at what price should she sell to make a profit of 15%
so manju spent 750 on the bike
to make a profit of 15% on what she paid , she must sell it for
1.15(750) or 862.5 rupees
To find the selling price, we need to calculate the profit first.
First, let's calculate the cost of the cycle after repair. Manju bought the cycle for Rs 720 and spent Rs 30 on repair, so the total cost is Rs 720 + Rs 30 = Rs 750.
To get a 15% profit, we need to find 15% of the cost price and add it to the cost price.
Profit = 15% of Cost Price
Profit = 15/100 * Rs 750
Profit = Rs 112.50
Now, we can calculate the selling price by adding the profit to the cost price.
Selling Price = Cost Price + Profit
Selling Price = Rs 750 + Rs 112.50
Selling Price = Rs 862.50
Therefore, Manju should sell the cycle for Rs 862.50 to make a 15% profit.
