Answer 2

Given :

• $\sf Cost \: price \: of \: sofa \: set, \: C.P. = Rs \: 55400$

• $\sf Profit \: percentage = 8 \%$

To Find :

• $\sf Selling \: price \: of \: sofa \: set, \: S.P. = ?$

Solution:

$\sf We \: know \: that,$

$\red{\bigstar} \underline{\boxed{\bf{S.P. = \Bigg(\dfrac{100 + Profit \% }{100}\Bigg) \times C.P.}}}$

$\sf : \implies S.P. = \Bigg(\dfrac{100 + 8}{100} \Bigg) \times 55400$

$\sf : \implies S.P. = \dfrac{108}{100} \times 55400$

$\sf : \implies S.P. = \dfrac{108}{1\cancel{00}} \times 554\cancel{00}$

$\sf : \implies S.P. = 108 \times 554$

$\sf : \implies S.P. = Rs \: 59832$

$\large \underline{\boxed{\bf{S.P. = Rs \: 59832}}}$

$\pink{\sf \therefore \: Selling \: price \: of \: sofa \: set \: is \: Rs \: 59832.}$
