There are two ways to do this, and both are shown below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Purchase Price: Rs 3500
Transport Charge: Rs 100
Cost Price (C.P.) = 3500 + 100 = Rs 3600
Loss incurred: 12%
___
Cost Price - (Loss incurred on Cost Price) = Selling Price
So, Selling Price:
= 3600 - (12% of 3600)
= 3600 - (12 * 36)
= 3600 - 432
= Rs 3168
Or,
Since loss = 12%, so Selling Price = 100 - 12 = 88% of Cost Price
Now,
88% of C.P. = 88/100 * 3600 = 88 * 36 = Rs 3168
