Answer:
option (c)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let purchase price=100x
Sale price by 12% loss=88x
88x=15000
x=15000/88
100x=15000*100/88
=RS 17045.45
Hence option (c) is correct
======================================
2nd method
Loss%=(CP-SP)*100/CP
CP*Loss%=100CP-100SP
CP*(100-Loss%)=100*SP
CP=100*SP/(100-Loss%)
=100*15000/(100-12)
=1500000/88=Rs 17045.45
