A and B gained $18 by trade. A's money was in trade 12 months, and he received for his principal and gain $26.

Let x = the number of dollars he put in;. 26--x = the number he gained, and 12a;--16 X 30: 12a::: 18: 26--x, or, 18z=1040--14a: --x2, or x--32x= 1040; and, by case 1, a=20, or--52; consequently A put in $20, Ans. 2. A sold a quantity of brandy for $39, and gained as much per cent, as the brandy cost him. What was the price of the brandy?

A sold a piece of cloth for $24, and gained as much per cent. as it cost hinj. What was the price of the cloth? Let x = cyst price of the cloth in dollars; then 24--x = the whole gain. Hence 100-fa:: x'.;24: 24--a;; (lOO+a: ) (24--z) = 24a;;.-. 2400--100z--ar=0;.: a?+lOOa; = 2400, by case 1, we have x=$20, the price ...
