Answer 1

Answer:

₹1075

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling price of bicycle=₹900

Loss percent=10%

Cost price of bicycle= 100/100-10*900

=100/90*900

=100*10=₹1000 ......(1)

Cost price of bicycle= ₹1000

Profit percent= 15/2%

Selling price of the bicycle=100+15/2/100*1000

=215/2/100*1000

=215/2*10

=215*5= ₹1075
