Answer 2

Answer:

Amina sells book for Rs.233.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's the required formula to find the selling price of book at loss percent.

$\star{\underline{\boxed{\tt{\purple{S.P = C.P \times \dfrac{100 - Loss \% }{100}}}}}}$

• S.P = Selling Price
• C.P = Cost Price

Substituting all the given values in the formula to find the selling price :

$\implies{\sf{S.P = C.P \times \dfrac{100 - Loss \% }{100}}}$

$\implies{\sf{S.P = 275 \times \dfrac{100 - 15}{100}}}$

$\implies{\sf{S.P = 275 \times \dfrac{85}{100}}}$

$\implies{\sf{S.P = \dfrac{275 \times 85}{100}}}$

$\implies{\sf{S.P = \dfrac{23375}{100}}}$

$\implies{\sf{S.P = \cancel{\dfrac{23375}{100}}}}$

$\implies{\sf{S.P = 233.75}}$

$\star{\underline{\boxed{\tt{\red{S.P = Rs \:233.75}}}}}$

Hence, the selling price of book is Rs.233.75.

$\rule{300}{2.5}$
