Answer:
rs 38.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total cost of the 80 books = 80*30 = rs 2400.
He had 60 books to sell and made a 5% loss.
Thus his income from these books was 2400 - 0.05*2400 = rs 2280.
So the selling price of each book was 2280 / 60 = rs 38.
Answer:
A bookseller bought 80 books at Rs 30each
=80×30
=Rs2400
Total books=80-20
=60
Bookseller had 60 books to sell and loss percent= 5%
=5/100
=0.05
His income from books=2400-0.05×2400
=Rs2280
S.P= His income/total books
=2280/60
=Rs38
