A toy is bought for $840. At what price must it be sold in order to lose 12 1⁄2%?

Answer:

48/5 it is correct answer.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Loss % = 25/2%

C.P = Rs840

$sp = \frac{100 - loss \: percent}{100} \times cp \\ sp = \frac{100 - \frac{25}{2} }{100} \times 840 \\ sp = \frac{ \frac{200 - 25}{2} }{100} \times 840 \\ sp = \frac{ \frac{175}{2} }{100} \times 840 \\ sp = \frac{175 \times 840}{2 \times 100 } \\ sp = 735$

Your answer is here mate.
