Question

Hareesh bought a motorcycle for Rs 1,35,000 and sold it at a loss of 12% . Find selling price of motorcycle.

Answer 1

Required Solution:

Given:

• C.P of motorcycle = Rs 1,35,000

• Loss % = 12 %

To calculate:

• S.P of the motorcycle.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that,

★ $\boxed{\sf { S.P = \dfrac{100-loss\%}{100} \times C.P}}$

$\sf { \longrightarrow S.P = \dfrac{100- 12}{100} \times 1,35,000}$

$\sf { \longrightarrow S.P = 88 \times 1350}$

$\sf \red { \longrightarrow S.P = Rs \: 1,18,800}$

Therefore, selling price of motorcycle is Rs 1,18,800.

More related formulae:

• Gain = S.P – C.P
• Loss = C.P – S.P

• $\rm { Gain \: \% = \Bigg( \dfrac{Gain}{C.P} \times 100 \Bigg)\%}$

• $\rm { Loss \: \% = \Bigg( \dfrac{Loss}{C.P} \times 100 \Bigg)\%}$

• $\rm { S.P = \dfrac{100+Gain\%}{100} \times C.P}$

• $\rm { C.P =\dfrac{100}{100+Gain\%} \times S.P}$

• $\rm { S.P = \dfrac{100-loss\%}{100} \times C.P}$

• $\rm { C.P =\dfrac{100}{100-loss\%} \times S.P}$

Answer:

$\rm Selling\:Price\:Of\:Motercycle = ₹1,18,800$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\huge{ \boxed{ \pink{ \mathfrak{To \:Find}}}}$

• S.P of Motorcycle

$\huge{ \boxed{\pink{ \mathfrak{Solution}}}}$

• We know that to find SP when CP and Loss percent is given we use the formula

• $\boxed { \pink{ \sf{S.P = \dfrac{100 - Loss \%}{100} \times C.P}}}$

• $\boxed { \pink{ \sf{S.P = \dfrac{100 - 12}{100} \times 1,35,000}}}$
