Answer:

Rs. 32.77

Step-by-step explanation:

  • At a loss of 24% sale price = Rs. 30
  • At a loss of 17% sale price = ?

----------

Finding cost price:

  • Sale price = cost - loss

If cost = x:

  • x - 24% = 30
  • 0.76x = 30
  • x = 30/0.76
  • x ≈ 39.48

SP at a loss of 17%:

  • 39.48 - 17% = 39.48*0.83 ≈ 32.77
