Answer:

loss% = loss/ c.p × 100

loss = c.p- s.p

let c.p = x

loss = x - 8510

using formula 8% = x- 8510/ x × 100

solve x we get 9250

Before, finding the answer. Let's find out on how we can find the answer.

  • To find the Cost Price, we must use the formula of :

\sf \dfrac{sp \times 100}{100 - loss}

  • Where, we have to first multiply the Selling Price and 100.
  • Then,  we must subtract 100 from loss.
  • At last, divide both.

______________

Given :

  • Selling Price = Rs. 8510
  • Loss = 8%

To find :

  • Cost price

Solution :

We know that,

\sf Cost \: Price = \dfrac{sp \times 100}{100 - loss}

\sf = \dfrac{8510 \times100}{100-8}

\sf = \dfrac{851000}{92}

\sf = 9250

Hence, the Cost Price is Rs. 9250.
