In the first case, $S.P.$ $=Rs. 31$ and loss $\%=7 \%$

$	herefore \quad$ C.P. $=\left(\frac{100}{100-\operatorname{Loss} \%}ight) 	imes$ S.P. $=\left(\frac{100}{100-7}ight) 	imes 31$

$=\frac{100}{93} 	imes 31=Rs. 33 \frac{1}{3}$

In the second case, $C . P .=Rs. 33 \frac{1}{3}$ and gain $\%=5 \%$

$	herefore \quad$ $S.P.$ $=\left(\frac{100+\operatorname{Gain} \%}{100}ight) 	imes$ $C.P.$

$=\left(\frac{100+5}{100}ight) 	imes \frac{100}{3}=\frac{105}{100} 	imes \frac{100}{3}=Rs.35$
