Answer 2

Given that 3% loss is suffered when apartment sold at 1236750

Now let the CP be x
$x \times \frac{(100 - 3)}{100} = 1236750 \\ x \times \frac{97}{100} = 1236750 \\ x = \frac{1236750}{0.97} \\ x = 1275000$
Now the price it should have been sold to earn profit of 20%
$= 1275000 \times \frac{120}{100} \\ = 1275000 \times 1.2 \\ = 1530000$
