Question

S..P=? C.P=825 L PERCENT=8. FIND THE S.P WITH METHOD AND EXPLANATION

Answer 1

Given, 

Cost Price = $825
Sell Price = ?
Loss percentage = 8%

----------------------------------------------

1st method:

We know, S.P = C.P - Loss

Let S.P be $x$.

Then, 

$x=825+(825*8$%)

=> $x=825+(825* \frac{8}{100} )$

=> $x=825+(825*\frac{4}{50})$

=> $x=825+(165*\frac{4}{10})$

=> $x=825+(33*\frac{4}{2})$

=> $x=825+(33*\frac{2}{1})$

=> $x=825+(33*2)$

=> $x=825+(66)$

=> $x=825+66$

=> $x=891$

So, $x$ is equal to $891.
Therefore, the Sell Price is $891.

----------------------------------------------

2nd method:

We know, Loss percentage = $\frac{loss}{C.P}$ × 100%

Let S.P be $x$.

Then, 

$8$% $= \frac{loss}{C.P}*100$%

=> $8$% $= \frac{C.P-S.P}{C.P}*100$%

=> $8$% $= \frac{825-S.P}{825}*100$%

=> $8$% $= \frac{825-x}{825}*100$%

=> $8$% ÷ $100$% $=\frac{825-x}{825}$

=> $\frac{8}{100}$ ÷ $\frac{100}{100}=\frac{825-x}{825}$

=> $\frac{8}{100}*\frac{100}{100}=\frac{825-x}{825}$

=> $\frac{8}{100}=\frac{825-x}{825}$

=> $\frac{2}{25}=\frac{825-x}{825}$

=> $\frac{2}{25}*825=825-x$

=> $2*33=825-x$

=> $66=825-x$

=> $66-825=-x$

=> $-x=6-825$

=> $-x=-819$

=> $-1x=-819$

=> $x= \frac{-819}{-1}$

=> $x= \frac{819}{1}$

=> $x=819$

So, $x$ is equal to $891.
Therefore, the Sell Price is $891.

ANSWER: The sell price is $$891$.
