Answer 1

Answer: selling price is 63000

Step-by-step explanation:

Farmer bought seeds of ₹45000

Farmer bought fertilizers of ₹5000

Farmer spent on transportation₹25000

Total c.p. of crops is ₹52500

He got a profit of20%

Selling price =?

S.p. =20/100*52500

=10500

S.p.=c.p.+profit

=52500+10500

=63000

Answer 2

The selling price is Rs.63000.

Given:

Price of seeds = Rs.45000.

Price of fertilizers = Rs.5000.

Transportation charge = Rs. 2500.

Profit percentage = 20%.

To Find:

Selling price.

Solution:

Here, it is given that the price of seed is $Rs.45000$.

The price of fertilizers is $Rs.5000$.

and the transportation charge is $Rs.2500$.

So, the cost price $=45000+5000+2500$

                             $=Rs.52500$.

Now, by using the formula, $SP=(\frac{100+P}{100})\times CP$

here, by putting the given values in the above formula.

we get,

$SP=(\frac{100+20}{100})\times 52500\\SP=\frac{120}{100}\times 52500\\SP= 63000$

Hence, the selling price is Rs.63000.
