Answer 2

Answer:

The Cost price (CP) is 160

Step-by-step explanation:

To find-

CP(cost price)

Solution-

Profit means the difference between the cost price and selling price.

Profit = 25%

Percentage mean divide by 100.

As we know that,

Profit = $\frac{selling price - cost price}{cost price}$ × $100$

Here we have to find cost price so let it be $x$

So,

$25=\frac{200- x}{x}$ ×$100$

$0.25x = (200-x)$

$0.25x + x = 200\\1.25 x = 200$

$x = \frac{200}{1.25}$

$x = 160$

Cost price (CP)= $160$

The Cost price (CP) is 160
