Let the selling price be X Rs.

here lost percentage=20% and loss= 90 Rs

then loss = X *20/100

then 90= X*1/5

Therefore X=90*5

hence, X= 450Rs

cheers.


shraddhagggroup: This is a cost price where is selling price
sagarptailor: DUh!!! thats an easy one.
sagarptailor: cost price will be CP- loss= SP
which will be equal to CP= SP+loss
CP= 450+90=540Rs
sagarptailor: you could have done and applied this logic on your own though.
sagarptailor: wait. I messe up. SORRY X is CP so SP will be 360Rs

Let the cost price be x.

Therefore, 20% loss on x = Rs 90

x = 90 x 100 / 20

= Rs 450

SP = x - 20x / 100

= x - 2x / 10

= (10 x - 2x) / 10

= 8x / 10

= 8 x 450 / 10

= Rs 360
