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
