Question

A girl buys a cycle for Rs. 7500 and sells it at a loss of 25 percent. What is the selling price of the cycle?

A.

5625

B.

4895

C.

5755

D.

6300

Correct option is A

Given:
Cost price of cycle = Rs. 7500
Loss percent = 25%
Formula Used:
Selling Price=Cost Price×(100L100)where L=Loss Percent\text{Selling Price} = \text{Cost Price} \times \left(\frac{100 - L}{100}\right) \\\text{where } L = \text{Loss Percent}​​
Solution:
Selling Price=7500×(10025)%=7500×75%=7500×75100=Rs 5625\text{Selling Price} = 7500 \times (100 - 25)\% \\= 7500 \times 75\% = 7500 \times \frac{75}{100} = \text{Rs } 5625​​
