Answer 2

Answer:

He should sell it at Rs.1631.25 to make a profit of 12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

SP of cycle = Rs.1334

Loss = 8%

$CP =\frac{SP \times 100}{100-L\%}$

$CP =\frac{1334 \times 100}{100-8\%}$

$CP =1450/tex]</p><p><strong>Now he wants to make profit of 12.5</strong></p><p>CP = 1450</p><p>Profit = 12.5%</p><p>Profit amount = [tex]\frac{12.5}{100} \times 1450$

Profit amount = $181.25$

SP =CP+Profit

SP = Rs.1450+Rs.181.25

SP = Rs.1631.25

Hence he should sell it at Rs.1631.25 to make a profit of 12.5%
