Question

Rashmi sells a television for Rs. 13,500 . She loses 20% in the bargain. What was the price at which she bought it
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost Price = Selling Price + Loss

• Selling Price = 13500 Rs
• Loss (%) = 20 %

Loss =

$= \frac{20}{100} \times 13500$

$= 2700$

Cost Price = 13500 + 2700

= 16,200 ₹

Answer 2

Answer:

SP of the Machine = 13500 Rs

He made 20 % loss.

That means he sold the machine at (100-20)% = 80 % of CP

Hence CP = 13500*100/80= 16875

She bought the machine at Rs 16875
