Answer 1

Given:

Cost Price = Rs 750

Expenses = Rs 50

Profit = Rs 80

To Find :

Selling Price

Profit Percentage.

Solution :

Total CP: Rs 750 + Rs 50 = Rs 800

Finding Profit Percentage:

$= > \dfrac{Profit}{CP} \times 100$

$= > \dfrac{80}{800} \times 100$

$= > 10\%$

Hence, The Profit Percentage is 10.

Finding Selling Price:

$= > \dfrac{100 + P\%}{100} \times CP$

$= > \dfrac{100 + 10}{100} \times 800$

$= > \dfrac{110}{100} \times 800$

$= > 880$

Hence, The Selling Price is Rs 880.
