sp of washing machine =rs12750.
loss%=15%.
now cp=100/100-loss%×sp.
so 100/100-15×12750.
100/85×12750
=rs 15000.
therefore cp = rs15000
rishu12:

because if we will find loss% of 15000 it would be something else not 12750₹
so tell me correct answer

Selling Price of washing machine = Rs 12750
Loss% = 15
We know that when SP and Loss% are given then 100 X SP
CP = --------------------
(100 - Loss%)
So, 100 X 12750
CP= ------------------
(100 - 15)
CP = 1275000 / 85 = Rs 15000
Therefore, Cost price of washing machine = Rs. 15000
Loss% = 15
We know that when SP and Loss% are given then 100 X SP
CP = --------------------
(100 - Loss%)
So, 100 X 12750
CP= ------------------
(100 - 15)
CP = 1275000 / 85 = Rs 15000
Therefore, Cost price of washing machine = Rs. 15000
