Question

Ritu bought an old rocking chair for Rs. 2100 and spent Rs.125 on its repair . Later she sold it for Rs. 2070. Find her profit or loss​

Answer 1

Answer:

So let's make it easy and solve it !

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's calculate her whole Cost price for that rocking chair.

So, that is

2100 + 125 = 2225

Now let's calculate her loss because as you can see over here the Cost price is more than the selling price (CP > SP)

So, now subtract the SP from CP

2225 - 2070 = 155

So her loss is ₹ 155

Answer 2

$\sf \pink{Given}\begin{cases}&\sf{CP\:of\:the\:chair=\bf{Rs.2100.}} \\ \\ &\sf{Charges\:spent\:on\:repairing=\bf{Rs.125.}} \\ \\ &\sf{SP\:of\:the\:chair=\bf{Rs.2070.}}\end{cases}$

To FinD:-

Profit or loss.

SolutioN:-

First we have to find the Total CP.

☯ According to the question,

$\\ \ \ \normalsize{\purple{\underline{\sf{Total\ CP=CP+Repairing\ charge}}}}$

$\sf {Here}\begin{cases}&\sf{CP=\bf{Rs.2100}} \\ \\ &\sf{Repairing\ charge=\bf{Rs.125}}\end{cases}$

• Putting the values,

$\\ :\normalsize\implies{\sf{Total\ CP=Rs(2100+125)}}$

$\\ \qquad\quad\normalsize\therefore\boxed{\mathfrak{\purple{Total\ CP=Rs.2225.}}}$

________________________________

Profit or Loss :

• SP = Rs.2070
• CP = Rs.2225

• The CP is greater than SP so it is Loss.

We know that,

$\\ \qquad\quad \ \ \large{\pink{\underline{\boxed{\bf{Loss=CP-SP}}}}}$

$\sf {Here}\begin{cases}&\sf{CP=\bf{Rs.2225}} \\ \\ &\sf{SP=\bf{Rs.2070}}\end{cases}$

• Putting the values,

$\\ :\normalsize\implies{\sf{Loss=Rs(2225-2070)}}$

$\\ \qquad\quad\normalsize\therefore\boxed{\mathfrak{\purple{Loss=Rs.155.}}}$

The Loss is Rs.155.
