A shopkeeper sold a mobile phone for Rs. 12000. Had he offered discount of 10% on the selling price, there would be a loss of 4%. What is the cost price of that Mobile phone?

Correct Answer: Rs. 11,250

Explanation:

Given that SP = Rs. 12000 - 10%  = Rs. 10,800


Loss% = 4


We know that, C.P = 100/(100 - Loss%) x 100


=> 100/100-4 x 10800


=> 1080000/96


C.P = Rs. 11,250
