Given :-

  • Discount = 25% .
  • Profit = 10%.
  • Marked price of mobile = Rs.8800.

To Find :-

  • Cost Price of the mobile ?

Solution :-

As we know that, their is no direct relation between Mark price and cost price . so we have to work on selling price of the mobile.

So,

→ MP of mobile = Rs.8800

→ Discount = 25% .

than,

SP of mobile = MP * (100 - discount%) / 100

→ SP of mobile = 8800 * (100 - 25) / 100

→ SP of mobile = 88 * 75

→ SP of mobile = Rs.6600 .

Now,

→ SP of mobile = Rs.6600

→ Profit % = 10% .

than,

CP of mobile = SP * 100 / (100 + Profit%)

→ CP of mobile = 6600 * 100 / (100 + 10)

→ CP of mobile = (6600 * 100) / 110

→ CP of mobile = 60 * 100

→ CP of mobile = Rs.6000 . (Ans.)

Hence , Cost Price of the mobile is Rs.6000.

Given:

Discount = 25%

Profit = 10%

Marked Price = 8800

To Find :

Cost Price of a mobile

Solution:

Finding Discount:

Discount = 25% of Marked Price

Discount = 25%x8800

Discount = 2200

Finding Selling Price:

Selling Price = Marked Price - Discount

Selling Price = 8800 - 2200

Selling Price = 6600

Finding Cost Price:

 =  >  CP = \dfrac{100}{100 + Profit\%}  \times SP

 =  > CP = \dfrac{100}{100 + 10}  \times 6600

 =  > CP = \dfrac{100}{110}  \times 6600

 =  >  CP = \dfrac{660000}{110}

 =  > CP = 6000

Hence, the Cost Price of mobile is Rs 6000
