If the selling price of a bike is ₹19000 and the profit gained is 7% find the cost price.
Given :
The selling price of bike $= ₹19000$
Profit percentage$=$ 7%.
To find :
We have to find the cost price of the bike.
Solution :
Let the cost price be x.
Cost price $= Selling price - Profit percentage$
$x= 19000 - \frac{7}{100} \times x$
$x + \frac{7x}{100}= 19000 $
$\frac{100x+7x}{100}=19000$
$\frac{107x}{100}=19000$
$x = 19000 \times \frac{100}{107}$
$x = 17757$
Therefore, the cost price of the bike is ₹17757.
