Answer» Answer: C.P of the total land=Rs.3,00,000 Sold 3
rd of land at the LOSS of 20% C.P of 3 1
rd of land= 3 1
×3,00,000=Rs1,00,000 S.P of 3 1
rd of land=C.P×(1− 100 loss%
) =1,00,000×(1− 100 20
)=1,00,000× 100 80
=Rs.80,000 Similarly, sold 5 2
th at a GAIN of 25% is C.P of 5 2
th of land= 5 2
×3,00,000=Rs.1,20,000 S.P of 5 2
th of land=1,20,000×(1+ 100 25
) =1,20,000× 100 125
=Rs1,50,000 Total Gain% required=10% Total S.P required=Total C.P×(1+ 100 Gain%
) =3,00,000×(1+ 100 10
)=3,60,000× 100 110
=Rs.3,30,000 S.P of balance land=3,30,000−80,000−1,50,000=Rs.1,00,000 ∴ he has to sell the balance land at Rs.1,00,00 |
