Solution:
This question if about car for sale.
Let the cost price is ‘x’
We know
Profit = Sale Price – Cost Price
so by given 17% of x = 50000-x
\[ \frac{17}{100} \times x= 50000-x \]
\[ \frac{17x}{100}+x=50000 \]
\[ \frac{117x}{100}=50000 \]
\[ x=\frac{50000\times 100}{117}=42735.042735043 \]
So, the cost price is Rs 42735.042735043
Hence, if sale price is RS 47000
then
Profit= Sale price – Cost price = 47000-42735.042735043= Rs 4264.957264957
Now, Let’s suppose this profit i-e Rs 4264.957264957 is ‘y’ percent of cost price Rs 42735.042735043
