If 13% is lost by selling goods for Rs 1475,what would be the loss or gain if the goods are sold for Rs 1615?

Let the cost price is Rs. x. Then 13% loss means Rs. 13x/100 is lost.

∴, x-13x/100=1475

or, (100x-13x)/100=1475

or, 87x=1475×100

or, x=(1475×100)/87

or, x=1695.40

Then if the goods are sold for Rs. 1615 then there will be a loss of

=(1695.40-1615)=Rs. 80.40

that is the sum
