the cost price of an article is ₹6250 sudhir sells it at a loss of 24% find its selling price.​

Answer 1

$\large \red{ \underline{ \underline{ \green{ \rm given : }}}}$

• Cost Price = rs. 6250

• loss% = 24%

$\large \purple{ \underline{ \underline{ \orange{ \rm solution : }}}}$

$\blue {\boxed{ \boxed{ \purple{ \rm loss = \frac{loss\% \times c.p}{100} }}}}$

$\implies \large \: \frac{24 \times 6250}{100}$

$\implies \: \red{ \large \frac{24 \times 625}{10} }$

$\implies \: \large \frac{15000}{10}$

= 1500

$\therefore \large \: \boxed{ \green{ \rm loss = rs. \: 1500}}$

$\rightarrow$ S.P = C.P - Loss

$\implies$ 6250 - 1500

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \large \boxed{ \boxed{ \blue{ \rm s.p = rs. \: 4750}}}$

Or :

$\pink{ \boxed{ \boxed{ \purple{ \rm s.p = \frac{c.p(100 - loss\%)}{100} }}}}$

$\implies \large \: \frac{6250(100 - 24)}{100}$

$\implies \large \: \frac{625 \times 76}{10}$

$\implies \large \: \frac{47500}{10}$

= 4750

$\: \therefore\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \large \boxed{ \boxed{ \red{ \rm s.p = rs. \: 4750}}}$
