Answer 2

The cost price is Rs.500.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A man sold a transistor for ₹450 at a loss of 10%.

To Find : The cost price of the transistor ?

Solution :

The selling price of a transistor is SP = ₹450.

The loss percent is L% = 10%

The cost price is given by,

$CP=\frac{100}{100-L\%}\times SP$

Substitute the values,

$CP=\frac{100}{100-10}\times 450$

$CP=\frac{100}{90}\times 450$

$CP=500$

Therefore, the cost price is Rs.500.
