On selling computer for Rs.24480, a dealer loses 4%. For how much should be sell it to gain 4%?

Let original price be x.

In losing 4%

$$S.P= x-(\frac{4}{100}x)$$

$$24,480=x-\frac{x}{25}$$

$$24,480=\frac{25x-x}{25}$$

$$24,480=\frac{24x}{25}$$

$$x=\frac{24,480\times 25}{24}$$

$$x=25,500$$

To gain 4%

$$S.P=x+(\frac{4}{100}.x)$$

$$S.P=x+\frac{x}{25}$$

$$S.P=\frac{26.x}{25}$$

$$S.P=\frac{25,500\times 26}{25}$$

$$S.P=26,520$$
