Question

if CP is equal to 8640 and loss is equal to 12 1 by 2% what is the SP​

Answer 1

Answer:

SP = 7560

Step-by-step explanation:

CP = 8640

Loss% = 12.5%

SP = ?

Loss% = [(CP - SP) / CP} * 100

           = (1 - (SP/CP)) * 100

1 - (SP/CP) = Loss% / 100

SP/CP = 1 - (Loss%/100)

SP = CP * [ 1 - (Loss%/100))

On substituting,

SP = 8640 * (1 - (12.5/100))

     = 8640 * (1 - 0.125)

     = 8640 * (0.875)

     = 7560

SP = 7560

Answer 2

C.P. = rupees 8640

Loss % = 121/2% = 60.5%

S.P. = 100 - Loss% * C.P.
