Answer 2

The selling price is Rs.405.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A trader loses 25%, if an article is sold at Rs.243.

To find : The selling price of the article to get a profit of 25% ?

Solution :

The selling price is SP=Rs.243

The loss percentage is L%=25%

The cost price formula is

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

$CP=\frac{100}{100-25} \times 243$

$CP=\frac{100}{75} \times 243$

$CP=324$

The cost price is Rs.324.

Profit percentage is 25%.

The selling price is given by,

$SP=\frac{100+P\%}{100}\times CP$

$SP=\frac{100+25}{100}\times 324$

$SP=\frac{125}{100}\times 324$

$SP=405$

Therefore, the selling price is Rs.405.
