Answer 2

The selling price would be Rs. 1650 to get a profit of 10%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Selling price = Rs. 1275

Loss % = 15%

So, Cost price would be

$\dfrac{100}{100-Loss}\times 1275\\\\=\dfrac{100}{100-15}\times 1275\\\\=\dfrac{100}{85}\times 1275\\\\=1500$

So, if profit = 10%

Then, the selling price would be

$\dfrac{100+10}{100}\times 1500\\\\=\dfrac{110}{100}\times 1500\\\\=110\times 15\\\\=Rs. 1650$

Hence, the selling price would be Rs. 1650 to get a profit of 10%.
