Here, the question has given us the selling price and has told is that a person had a loss of 15% on selling the table at ₹1700. The question has asked us to find the CP of the table. So to find CP we have to find the formula of CP when loss% is given.
ANSWER:-
- Cost price of the table is Rs 2,000.
GIVEN:-
- Selling price of the table = Rs 1700
- Loss the man had = 15%
TO FIND:-
- Cost Price of the table = ?
FORMULA:-
- CP when Loss Percent is given = (SP × 100 / 100 - Loss)
SOLVING BY APPLYING THE FORMULA:-
➴ Selling price = Rs 1700
➴ Loss percent = 15%
➴ CP when Loss Percent is given = (SP × 100 / 100 - Loss)
- Cost price of the table = (170000 × 100 / 100 - 15)
- Cost price of the table = (170000 / 100 - 15)
- Cost price of the table = (170000 / 85)
- Cost price of the table = (170000 / 85) = 2,000
- Cost price of the rise = Rs 2,000
Hence, we got our answer by the formula of Cost price when loss% is given. So, the Cost price of the table is Rs 2,000.
- Profit = (SP > CP) = SP - CP
- Loss = (CP > SP) = CP - SP
- Profit% = (Profit × 100 / CP)%
- Loss% = (Loss × 100 / CP)%
- SP when Profit Percent is given = (100 + Profit % / 100)× CP
- CP when Profit Percent is given = (SP × 100 / 100 + Profit %)
- SP when Loss Percent is given = (100 - Loss / 100)× CP
- CP when Loss Percent is given = (SP × 100 / 100 - Loss)

AllFormulaeofProfitAndLoss
Profit = (SP > CP) = SP - CP
Loss = (CP > SP) = CP - SP
Profit% = (Profit × 100 / CP)%
Loss% = (Loss × 100 / CP)%
SP when Profit Percent is given = (100 + Profit % / 100)× CP
CP when Profit Percent is given = (SP × 100 / 100 + Profit %)
SP when Loss Percent is given = (100 - Loss / 100)× CP
CP when Loss Percent is given = (SP × 100 / 100 - Loss)
