Question

by selling a bat for Rupees 1500 A shopkeeper earns a profit of 20% find the cost price of 12 such bat​

Answer 1

Answer:

Cost of 12 bats = 15000

Step-by-step explanation:

To find cost price of 12 bats, first we need to find the CP of 1 bat

$cost \: price \: = \frac{100}{100 \times gain\%} \times sp$

$cp = \frac{100}{100 \times 20} \times 1500$

$cp \: = \frac{100}{120} \times 1500$

$cp = \frac{150000}{120}$

$cp = 1250$

Now, to find CP of 12 bats,

$1250 \times 12$

$15 000$
