Question

b) Find the cp when S.P=₹ 1290, loss = 14%​

Answer 1

Answer:

Cost price = Rs.1500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost price is Rs.100, then loss = Rs. 14

and S.P. = Rs. 100 - 14 = Rs. 86

By unitary method,

If S.P. was Rs. 86 then C.P = Rs.100

So, If S.P. is Rs.1290 then C.P. would be = Rs. 100 * 1290 / 86 = Rs. 1500

Therefore, Cost price = Rs. 1500
