Cp when profit = Sp -profit = 1200-900= Rs 300

Cp=Rs 300

Answer 2

Given:

Selling price=Rs.1200

Profit=Rs.900

To find:

The cost price

Solution:

The radio's cost is Rs.300.

We can obtain the required amount by deducting the profit amount from the radio's price of selling.

So, the price of selling the radio - Radio's cost= profit earned.

The price of selling the radio -profit =Radio's cost

We will substitute the values to calculate the amount.

Using values,

1,200-900=Radio's cost

300=Radio's cost

Therefore, the radio's cost is Rs.300.
