Question

the diffrence between cost price and selling price is 300, if loss arise 25% what is the selling price

Answer 1

cp-sp=300
lose% = lose/cp ×100
25=(300/300+x )×100
x=900

Answer 2

Difference between cost and selling price is 300. That is what we call a positive integer. So we can say that there is a LOSS.

If the Loss is 25%, the selling price is________________.

We know that $Loss Percent=\frac{Loss}{Cost Price}100$
So we reverse the process.

$25=\frac{300}{CostPrice}100$
$\frac{300}{CP}\frac{100}{1}= \frac{30000}{CP}$


$\frac{30,000}{CP}=25$
$Reverse: (25*CostPrice=30,000)$
$\frac{30,000}{25}=1,200.$

The CP is 1,200. The loss is 300, so calculate again.

$SP=CP-Loss$
$SP=1,200-300$
$SP=900$
___________________________
Therefore, SP is 900.
