​

Answer 1

Answer:

625

Step-by-step explanation:

SP=600

P%=20%

let CP=x

now, profit=p%of CP

= 20%*x

= (20/100) *x

= x/5

now,

CP = SP-P

x=600- (x/5)

x+(x/5)=600

6x/5=600

x=(600*5)/6

x= 500

here CP=500

now, profit%=25%

CP=500

SP=?

again,

profit = profit% of Cp

=25% of 500

=(25*500)/100

=125

so,

SP= CP+P

=500+125

= 625
