Answer 1

Required Answer:

• Cost Price (cp) = ₹ 1500
• Loss = 3%

To Find:

• Loss = ?
• Selling Price (sp) = ?

Step By Step:

After 3% loss , Loss value will be;

1500 × 3/100 = ₹45 (loss)

So,

(Selling price = Actual Price - Loss)

➦ Selling price = ₹1500 - 45

➦ Selling price = ₹1455

Hence,

The Selling price (sp) of the Electric Iron is ₹1455.

Answer 2

${\huge{\underline{\underline{\rm{Question:-}}}}}$

Q) An electric iron is purchased for ₹1500 and is sold at a loss of 3% . Find the loss and the Selling price of the electric iron .

${\huge{\underbrace{\rm{Answer\checkmark}}}}$

$\frak{Given}\begin{cases}\sf{Cost\:Price\;(C.P.) =\bf{₹1500.}}\\ \sf{Loss\:Percent=\bf{3\;Percent.}}\end{cases}$

# TO FIND :

1. Loss
2. Selling Price

★ SOLUTION :

${\textit{\textbf{Finding\;Loss-}}}$

We know,

$\boxed{ \sf{loss \: percent = \frac{loss}{cp} \times 100}}$

So,

$\rm \mapsto \: 3\% = \frac{loss} {\cancel{1500} }\times \cancel{100 }\\ \\ \mapsto \rm \: 3\% = \frac{loss}{15} \\ \\ \mapsto \rm \: loss = 15 \times 3 \: \\ \\ \mapsto \underline{ \boxed{ \sf{ \purple{loss = 45 \: rs}}}}$

${\textit{\textbf{Finding\;SP-}}}$

$\boxed{ \sf{selling \: price = cost \: price - loss}}$

$\mapsto \rm \: selling \: price = 1500 \: rs - 45rs \\ \\ \mapsto \underline{ \boxed{ \sf{ \pink{selling \: price = 1455 \: rs}}}}$

So, Required Answers :

1. Loss = ₹ 45 .
2. Selling Price (S.P.) = ₹ 1455 .
