⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ANSWER ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

❄ PROFIT ❄

✔ Profit occurs when selling price is greater than cost price (S. P. > C. P.)

✔ Profit = S. P. - C. P.

✔ Profit% = (Profit/C. P.) × 100%

❄ LOSS ❄

✔ Loss occurs when cost price is greater than selling price (C. P. > S. P.)

✔ Loss = C. P. - S. P.

✔ Loss% = (Loss/C. P.) × 100%

❄ SOLUTION ❄

Given, the S. P. Of fan = Rs. 1200

Let the C. P. Be Rs. X

Then, Loss = C. P. - S. P. = Rs. (X-1200)

Also, given Loss = Rs. 200

Therefore, X-1200 = 200

=> X = 1400

So, if C. P. = Rs. 1400
Gain = 1400×(10/100)

= Rs. (1400×0.1)

= Rs. 140

S. P. = C. P. + Gain = Rs. (1400+140) = Rs. 1540 (Ans.)

Answer 2

Answer:

1540

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, Selling price = 1200.

Given, Loss = 200.

We know that Cost price = Selling price + Loss

                                          = 1200 + 200

                                          = 1400.

Given,Gain = 10%.

We know that Selling price = [(100 + Gain%)/100] * CP

                                              = [(100 + 10)/100] * 1400

                                              = [110/100] * 1400

                                              = 1540.

Therefore, Selling price = 1540.

Hope it helps!
