Answer 2

$\huge\mathtt{Answer :- }$

Given :-

• Cost price of cupboard = ₹21500

• Loss% of cupboard = 8%

To Find :-

• Selling price of cupboard

Formula :-

⠀⠀⠀$\boxed{\sf{S.P = \dfrac{100 - L\% }{100} \times c.p}}$

Where,

• S.P = Selling price of cupboard

• L% = Loss percent of cupboard

• C.P = Cost price of cupboard

Solution :-

By substituting values according to the formula,

$\sf{⇒ S.P = \dfrac{100 - 8}{100}\times 21500 }$

$\sf{⇒ S.P = \dfrac{92}{{\cancel {100}}}\times 215{\cancel{00 }}}$

$\sf{⇒ S.P = 92 \times 215}$

$\sf{➠ S.P = ₹19780}$

Hence, The Selling price of the cupboard is ₹19780
