Question

find the c.p when s.p=700 loss 25/2​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Sp=cp-loss %of cp

consider cp as x

7000=x-12.5%/100*x

7000=x-12.5x/100%

7000=112.5x/100%

7000×100=112.5x

700000/112.5=x

6222.22=x

the cp is Rs 6222.22

3.5

Answer 2

Answer:

Cost price (c.p) = Rs 800

Step-by-step explanation:

$S.P = Rs 700,\\Loss(l)=\frac{25}{2}\%=12.5\%$

$c.p = \frac{s.p\times 100}{100-l}$

$=\frac{700\times 100}{100-12.5}\\=\frac{70000}{87.5}\\=Rs 800$

Therefore,

Cost price (c.p) = Rs 800
