profit = selling price - cost price

let cp is 100
then profit is 25
so sp is 125

similarly if sp is 125 then cp is 100
if sp is 1 then cp is 100/125
therefore if sp is 600 then cp=
(600 \times 100) \div 125 = 480

The cost price is Rs.480.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The labelled price of a product is rs 750. If is sold at a 20 % discount and the dealer earns a 25 % profit.

To find : What ts the cost price ?

Solution :

Market price = Rs.750

Discount%= 20%

So, Discount is given by

D=D\%\times MP

D=20\%\times 750

D=\frac{20}{100}\times 750

D=150

The discount is Rs.150.

The selling price is given by,

SP=MP-D

SP=750-150

SP=Rs.600

Selling price is Rs.600.

Now, the profit percentage is 25%

The cost price is given by,

CP=\frac{100}{100+P\%}\times SP

CP=\frac{100}{100+25}\times 600

CP=\frac{100}{125}\times 600

CP=480

Therefore, the cost price is Rs.480.
