Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Loss = Rs. 12500
Sold for = Rs. 75200
Repairs of = Rs. 1500
To find :
The cost price
Solution :
Overheads = 1500
SP = 75200
Loss = 12500
CP = y
Total CP = CP + Overheads
= y + 1500
★ Loss = CP - SP
⇒ 12500 = (y + 1500) - 75200
⇒ 12500 = y - 73700
⇒ y = 73700 + 12500
⇒ y = 86200
Cost Price = Rs. 86200
Therefore, the price at which the car was bought by Aman is Rs. 86200.
