Answer 1

RS.6000

Step-by-step explanation:

c.p =RS.8000

% of discount =25%

discount amount =25% of 8000

=25/100 ×8000

=25×80

= RS.2000

selling price =c.p - discount amount

=8000 - 2000

=RS.6000

Answer 2

Answer:

Rs. 6000

Step-by-step explanation:

from the problem we know that the buying price,BP, is Rs 8000

The loss is of 25%

and the Selling price, SP, is not known.

Assuming that the BP is 100% and the car is sold at a 25% loss, then it is sold at value of (100-25)% of the BP

Therefore. the Selling Price can be found as;

$SP=\frac{(100-25)}{100}*8000\\ SP=6000$

Thus the car was sold for Rs. 6000
