$\sf\large\underline{Given:}$

$\tt{\implies CP\:of\:car=Rs.80000}$

$\tt{\implies spent\:on\: it's\: repairs=Rs.5000}$

$\tt{\implies transportation\: charges=10000}$

$\tt{\implies Profit\: after\: selling\:car=Rs.21500}$

$\sf\large\underline{To\: Find:}$

$\tt{\implies SP\:of\:car=?}$

$\sf\large\underline{Solution:}$

• At first calculate calculate the total cost price price of the car than calculate the selling price of the car]

$\tt{\implies Total\:_{(cost\:of\:car)}=CP+spent+transportation}$

$\tt{\implies Total\:_{(cost\:of\:car)}=80000+5000+1000}$

$\tt{\implies Total\:_{(cost\:of\:car)}=Rs.86000}$

• Now, calculate the selling price of car]

$\tt{\implies SP\:_{(car)}=Total\:_{(CP)}+Profit}$

$\tt{\implies SP\:_{(car)}=86000+21500}$

$\tt{\implies SP\:_{(car)}=Rs.107500}$

Hence,

• Sherya sold the car at Rs.107500
