Answer 2

Before, finding the answer. Let's find out on how we can find the answer.

• To find the Cost Price of the Car when loss is given, we must use the formula of :

$\sf C.P = \dfrac{ SP \times 100}{ 100 - loss }$

• Here, we have to multiply Selling Price and 100. Then, subtract 100 and loss.
• Then, we must divide both.

Given :

• C.P = ₹ 1152
• Loss = 36%

To find :

• Selling Price

Solution :

We know that,

$\sf C.P = \dfrac{ SP \times 100}{ 100 - loss }$

      $\sf = \dfrac{ 1152 \times 100}{ 100 - 36 }$

      $\sf = \dfrac{ 115200}{64}$

      $\sf = Rs. 1800$

∴ Cost Price of Car is Rs. 1800.
