Answer 2

Given :

• Selling Price = Rs. 3,75,000
• Loss = 25%

To find :

• Cost price

Solution :

Selling Price = Rs. 3,75,000

Loss = 25%

$\sf \: c.p = \dfrac{s.p}{100 + loss} \times 100$

$\sf \: c.p = \dfrac{375000}{100 + 25} \times 100$

$\sf \: c.p = \dfrac{375000}{125} \times 100$

$\sf \: c.p = \dfrac{3,75,00,000}{125}$

$\sf \: c.p = 3,00,000$

Hence, the Selling Price of the car is Rs. 3,00,000.
