Question

find the SP if CP is rupees 2500 and loss is 20%​

Answer 1

S.P. = 2500

loss ℅ = 20

C.P. = ( S.P. × 100 ) ÷ ( 100 - loss% )

= (2500 × 100) ÷ 80

= 250000 ÷ 80

= 3125 rs

Now, C.P. = 3125

S.P. = 3150

Gain = 3150-3125

= 25

Gain % = ( 25 × 100 / 3125 )

= 0.8%.............Answer

Answer 2

$\boxed{\boxed{Answer}}$

Given ,

SP  = ?

CP = 2500

loss% = 20%

∵ we know this formula :

SP = $\frac{100-Loss}{100} \times CP$

    => $\frac{100-20}{100}\times 2500$

     => $80\times 25 \\=> 2000$

Therfore SP = 2000 rupees
