Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Rashmi buys a calculator = Rs. 1080 sells it at a loss = 6 2/ 3 % = 20/3%

= 1080 * 20/3 *1/100

she sell the calculator at = 1080 - 72

= Rs.1008

Answer 2

Given: Cost Price of calculator bought by Rashmi = Rs. 1080

           Loss on selling the calculator = $6\frac{2}{3}$ %

To find: Selling price of the calculator

Solution: According to the given question,

Loss suffered on selling the calculator = $6\frac{2}{3}$ % or $\frac{20}{3}$% of Cost price

                                                                = $\frac{\frac{20}{3} }{100}$ × $1080$

                                                                = $\frac{20}{300}$ × $1080$ = Rs. 72

∴Selling Price = Cost Price - Loss

                       = Rs. 1080 - Rs. 72

                       = Rs. 1008

Hence, Rashmi sold the calculator for Rs. 1008.
