Answer 1

Answer:

The cost price is Rs. 12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Selling Price = Rs. 12

Loss % = 4 %

To find :

Cost price

Solution :

${\boxed{\sf\:{CP = \frac{100}{(100 - loss\%)} \times SP}}}$

⇒ CP = 100/(100 - 4) × 12

⇒ CP = 100/96 × 12

⇒ CP = 100/8

⇒ CP = 12.5

Cost Price = Rs. 12.5

Therefore, the cost price is Rs. 12.5
