Answer 2

Answer:

Rs.75,000

Step-by-step explanation:

A 15% loss just means that the loss equals 15% of the cost price.

loss = 15% x cost price

Selling price (SP) is the difference between cost price (CP) and loss.

SP = CP - loss

SP = CP -15% of CP

we can write CP as 100% of CP

SP =100% of CP−15% of CP

SP =85% of CP

Now, let's calculate the cost price.

$63,750= 85% x CP

$63,750 = 85/100 x CP

100/85 x 63,750= CP

CP= ₹75,000

Hope this helped!!
