Answer:
Rs 672
Step-by-step explanation:
Selling Price = Rs 576
Find the cost price:
Loss = 4%
Selling Price = 100 - 4 = 96%
96% = Rs 576
1% = 576 รท 96 = Rs 6
100% = 6 x 100 = Rs 600
Find the gain he wants:
Gain = 12% of Rs 600
Gain = 0.12 x 600 = Rs 72
Find the new selling price:
Selling Price = 600 + 72 = Rs 672

According to the question we know that selling price is 576 and loss percent is 4%
Now, selling price is 100 - 4 = 96%
576 = 96%
Percent = 576/96 = 6
= 6 * 100 = 600
now, Gain is 12% of 600
so, gain = 72
S. P = 600 + 72 => 672
