Question

Juhi sells a washing machine for 13500 she loses 20% in the bargain what is the price at which she bought it​

Answer 1

➤ Given :-

Selling price (SP) = ₹13500

Loss percentage = 20%

➤ To Find :-

Cot price of the washing machine.......

➤ Solution :-

$\longrightarrow \sf \:cost \: price = selling \: price - loss$

First find the Cost price.....

$\longrightarrow \sf CP = 13000 - loss$

$\longrightarrow \sf \:loss = 13500 \times 20\%$

$\longrightarrow \sf \cancel{13500} \times \frac{20}{ \cancel{100}} = 135 \times 20$

$\longrightarrow \sf \:loss = 2700$

Now,

Cost price =

$\longrightarrow \sf \:13500 - 2700$

$\longrightarrow \sf \:10800$

$\Huge\therefore$The cost price is ₹10800.
