Answer 2

Answer:

The Cost Price of the item is Rs. 4588.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Selling price = Rs. 1147

Loss % = 75 %

To find :

The Cost Price

Solution :

Here :

• Selling Price = 1147
• Loss % = 75 %
• Cost Price = ??

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

$\sf{\implies} \: {CP = \dfrac{100}{(100 - 75)} \times 1147} \\ \\ \sf{\implies} \: {CP = \dfrac{100}{25} \times 1147} \\ \\ \sf{\implies} \: {CP = 4 \times 1147} \\ \\ \sf{\implies} \: {CP = 4588}$

$\therefore$ The Cost Price of the item is Rs. 4588.
