Question

CP if SP equals to rupees 1180 and loss equals to 12.5%​

Answer 1

Answer:

selling price = Rs10.83

Explanation:

Given Cost price (c.p)=Rs12.50

Loss (l) = 13⅓% = 40/3%

Let the selling price = s.p

s.p=c.p$\frac{\left(100-l\right)}{100}</p><p>\implies s.p=12.50\times\frac{\left(100-\frac{40}{3}\right)}{100}$

$\implies s.p=12.50\times\frac{\left(300-40\right)}{3\times100}$

$\implies s.p = 12.50\times\frac{260}{300}</p><p>\implies s.p = \frac{3250}{300}$

Therefore,

$\implies$ s.p = Rs10.83

Selling price (s.p) = Rs10.83
