Question

the difference of cp and sp is 225 and percentage of profit 15% find the sp of object?
​

Answer 1

Answer: 1725

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is profit so selling price must be greater than cost price

So SP- CP= profit= 225.

Profit percent= 15%

Profit percent= (profit/CP)× 100

15= 225x100/ cp

CP= 22500/15

CP= 1500

SP= CP + profit

1500+225= 1725

SP= 1725

Put Rs in front of numbers.

Answer 2

☞Correct Question:

The difference of CP and SP is 225 and percentage of profit 15% find the SP of object?

☞Required Answer:

The SP of an object is 1725.

☞Given:

•The difference of CP and SP is 225.

•Profit = 15%

☞To Find:

SP of an object.

☞Solution:

We know that SP is always greater than CP whenever there is Profit.

=>Now,

SP - CP, Profit = 225

Profit = 15%

✒Formula used :

Profit percent = $\sf\dfrac{Profit}{CP}$ × 100

15 = $\sf\dfrac{225}{CP}$ × 100

CP = $\sf\dfrac{225}{15}$ × 100

CP = $\sf\dfrac{22500}{15}$

CP = $\cancel\dfrac{22500}{15}$

CP = 1500

Therefore, CP of an object is 1500

=>SP = CP + Profit

=> SP = 1500 + 225

=> SP = 1725

Therefore, SP of an object is 1725.
