Question

If the loss incurred in selling a dress at Rs. 800 is 20 % , find its cost price.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Its easy.

let cp=x

x*20/100=800

20x=80*100

x=80*100/20

x=400

but we need to add 800 too!!!

there fore

x=400+800

hence true CP of product= 1200

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The selling price of the dress= Rs 800

Loss percentage = 20% of SP

0.20 = (CP - 800)/800

20% of 800 = 160

CP = 160 + 800 = Rs 960
