➬ Here, the question has given us that Dhiraj sold his old laptop at loss of 25% in ₹ 25000. Now, the question has asked us to find the CP of Dhiraj's laptop. So, to find the CP we simply need to apply the formula of CP when loss is given.

ANSWER:-

➔ Cost price of the laptop is Rs. 33,333.333

GIVEN:-

➞ Selling price of the laptop = Rs. 25000

➞ Loss made by Dhiraj = 25%

TO FIND:-

➡ Cost price of the laptop = ?

FORMULA:-

➤ Cost price when loss is given = (SP × 100 / 100 - Loss)

SOLVING BY APPLYING THE FORMULA:-

→ SP = 25000

→ Loss % = 25%

➤ Cost price when loss is given = (SP × 100 / 100 - Loss)

⇒ Cost Price = (25000 × 100 / 100 - 25)

⇒ Cost Price = (2500000 / 75)

⇒ Cost Price = (2500000 / 75) = 33,333.33

⇒ Cost Price = Rs. 33,333.33

Cost price of the laptop is Rs. 33,333.33

${\underline{\boxed{\large{\mathscr{\:All\: Formulae\:of\:Profit\:And\:Loss\:}}}}}$

• Profit = (SP > CP) = SP - CP
• Loss = (CP > SP) = CP - SP
• Profit% = (Profit × 100 / CP)%
• Loss% = (Loss × 100 / CP)%
• SP when Profit Percent is given = (100 + Profit % / 100)× CP
• CP when Profit Percent is given = (SP × 100 / 100 + Profit %)
• SP when Loss Percent is given = (100 - Loss / 100)× CP
• CP when Loss Percent is given = (SP × 100 / 100 - Loss)
