price of that fan ?
(A) 1225 (B) 1450 (C) 1425 (D) 1275​

Answer 1

Answer:

₹1425

Step-by-step explanation:

let the CP be x

and we know that CP = 100%

and in question it said that SP - CP = ₹175

and Gain % = 14%

so according to this SP will be 114%

now CP = 100% = x

so if 100% = x

so 114% = x / 100 * 144 = 114x/100

now SP = 114% = 114x/100

so according to question :-

SP - CP = gain

114x/100 - x = ₹175

114x-100x/100 = 175

14x / 100 = 175

14x = 175*100

x = 175*100/14

x = ₹1250

now SP = 114x/100

= 114*1250/100

= ₹1425
