Question

Cost of an item is rs25 it was sold with a profit of 12% what was selling price

Answer 1

Solution :

Cost price ( c.p ) = Rs 25

profit ( g ) = 12%

=> selling price (s.p)

= c.p [ (100+g )/100 ]

= 25 [ (100 + 25 )/100 ]

= ( 25 × 125 )/100

= 3125/100

= 31.25

Therefore ,

selling price = Rs 31.25
