In the last month the company decided to increase the cost of its mixer by 10 percent. What is the present price of the mixer? I. The cost of mixer and juicer together was Rs 2850 a month ago. II. The amount of 10% increase on the mixer comes to Rs 220. Correct Answer If the data in statement II alone are sufficient answer the question

The present price of the mixer can he calculated from statement II as follows

Let the earlier price be Rs x.
