Question

b) A book seller purchased 100 story books at Rs 135 each. She donated 10 books to a school library. If she sold remaining books at 2% loss, find the selling price of each book.​

Answer 1

SP = Rs 132.3

Explanation:

Original Price = Rs 135

Books Left = 90 books

Loss %age = 2%

Let's find the selling price:

Selling Price = Original Price - (Loss% * 135)

S P = 135 - (
`(2*135)/(100)`)

SP = 135 - 2.7

SP = Rs 132.3
