Answer: 1300 is the cost price
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate cost price if selling price and loss percentage are given: CP = ( SP * 100 ) / ( 100 – percentage loss)
therefore placing values in above equation
CP = 1144 * 100/ 100-12=114400/88=1300

Answer:
1300
Step-by-step explanation:
Sp=1144
loss=12%
let the cp be x
loss=12%of x=12x/100
cp=sp+loss
=x=1144+12x/100
=x-12x/100=1144
=100x-12x=114400
=88x=114400
=x=114400/88
=x=1300
