SP = 1440 , Loss = 20%
Let CP be x
Loss = Loss % * CP / 100
Loss = 20x / 100 = x/5
CP - SP = Loss
x - 1440 = x/5
x - x/5 = 1440
4x/5 = 1440
x = 1800
CP = 1800
Profit to make is 20%
Profit = Profit% * CP / 100
Profit = 20 * 1800 / 100
Profit = 360
SP = CP + Profit
SP = 1800 + 360
SP = 2160
ANSWER IS ₹2160
