A person buys a ceiling fan for ₹2,200 and sells it at a loss of 35%. What is the selling price of the ceiling fan?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. ₹1,430 . 

Cost price = ₹2200

Loss = 35% of ₹2200

= (35 ÷ 100) × 2200 = 770

Selling price = Cost price − Loss = 2200 − 770 = 1430
