Given:

The selling price of a ratio set = 72.00

Profit percent = 8%

To find:

The cost price for the radio set.

Solution:

Let x be the cost price for the radio set.

Radio set is sold at 8% profit.

\text{Selling price}=x+\dfrac{8}{100}x

\text{Selling price}=x+0.08x

\text{Selling price}=1.08x

The selling price of a ratio set is 72.00.

72=1.08x

\dfrac{72}{1.08}=x

x=66.666...

x\approx 67

Therefore, the cost price for the radio set is 67.
