​

Answer 1

Answer:

cost of dress sold at profit is 1296, cost of dress sold at loss is 1128

Step-by-step explanation:

cost of dress sold at profit =

cost price = 1200

profit% = 8%

profit = profit % of cost price

= 6% × 1200

= 6/100 × 1200

= 96

selling price = cost price + profit

= 1200+96

=1296

cost of dress sold at loss =

cost price = 1200

loss% = 6%

loss= loss% of cost price

= 6%× 1200

= 6/100 × 1200

= 72

selling price = cost price - loss

= 1200- 72

= 1128
