Answer:
₹50000
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of total chickens = 500
Number of died chickens = 75
Number of remaining chickens = 500 - 75 = 425
S.P. of one chicken = ₹ 120
Therefore, S.P. of 425 chickens = 120 * 425 = ₹ 51000
Profit = S.P. - C.P.
= 51000 - C.P.
Profit % = Profit/C.P. * 100
2 = 51000 - C.P. / C.P. * 100
2 = 5100000 - 100C.P. / C.P.
2C.P. = 5100000 - 100C.P
2C.P. + 100C.P. = 5100000
102C.P. = 5100000
C.P. = 5100000 / 102
C.P. = 50,000
Therefore, the total CP of the chickens is ₹50,000
