Explanation

Profit = 8 %

Sp of car = Rs 60000

Cp = sp/1 + .profit percentage

Cp = 60000/1+ 8

Cp= 50000/9 = Rs 5555.56

Now he wants to sell at Rs  55, 000

New sp = Rs 55, 000

Profit sp-cp = 55, 000 - 5555.56 = Rs 49444.43

Profit % = profitx100/cp

Profit % = 49444.45×100/5555.56 = 889.0%

New profit % =8.1 %

Explanation

Let the cost price of the dog be Rs. X

∴ the cost price of the cat = Rs. (6500 – X)

The man sold the dog at a gain of 20%

∴ Gain in selling the dog = 20% of X = 0.2X

Also, the man sold the cat at a loss of 10%

∴ loss in selling the cat = 10% of (6500 – X) = 0.1 × (6500 – X) = 650 – 0.1X

He gained 2% in the overall.

∴ Gain in overall transaction = 2% of 6500 = 130

∴ 130 = 0.2X – (650 – 0.1X)

0.3X = 130 + 650 = 780

X = 780/0.3 = 2600
