Step-by-step explanation:

let the total cost of a bicycle is ₹x

Shashi sold a bicycle for ₹648

10% loss is there 10%x

therefore,648 = 90% of total cost

648 = 90/100x

648 = 9/10x

x = 648×10/9

x = 72×10

x = 720₹

20% profit = 20/100×720

= 144₹

total cost of bicycle after 20%profit = 648 + 144

= 792₹
