Heya...
Here is your answer ----

=> Selling Price (SP) = ₹ 2550

=> Loss = 15%

=> Cost Price (CP) = 100/(100 - L%) × SP

=> Cost Price (CP) = 100/(100 - 15) × 2550

=> Cost Price (CP) = 100/85 × 2550

=> Cost Price (CP) = 20/17 × 2550

=> Cost Price (CP) = 20 × 150

=> Cost Price (CP) = ₹ 3000

HOPE IT HELPS....!!!

Heya,

Given:-

SP = RS.2550
Loss % = 15%

To find:-
CP of the article

Solution:-

CP = 100/100-L% × SP

CP = 100/100-15 × 2550

CP = 100/85 × 2550

CP = 20/17 × 2550

CP = 20 × 150

CP = 3000

Hence,

The Cost price of the article is Rs. 3000

Hope my answer helps you :)
