Selling price = 100%
\nPart 1:
\nIf sold at a profit of $\\var{profit}$%, then
\nCost price = $\\var{aprofit}$%
\n$€\\var{a} \\times (\\frac{100}{\\var{aprofit}}) = €\\var{ansone}$
\nThen round this to two deicmal places.
\n\nPart 2 :
\nIf sold at a loss of $\\var{loss}$%, then
\nCost price = $\\var{aloss}$%
\n$€\\var{a} \\times (\\frac{100}{\\var{aloss}}) = €\\var{anstwo}$
\nThen round this to two deicmal places.
\n\n\nNote:
\nThis question might require an awkward long division. If you are having problems with getting a correct answer you may need to work up to 5 or 6 decimal places in your long division.
\nHere is a reminder video about doing long division:
