by selling a jacket for rs 729 sunanda lost 10 % what was the cost price ??
Answer:
Loss% = (CP - SP)/CP x 100 (Where CP = Cost Price and SP = Selling Price).
Selling Price of Jacket = Rs. 729.
Loss% = 10%.
So:Loss% = (CP - SP)/CP x 100
10 = (CP - 729)/CP x 100
10CP = 100CP - 72900
10CP - 100CP = - 72900
- 90CP = - 72900
CP = 72900/90 = Rs. 810.
Ans: 810.
