Reena buys an iron for ₹900 and sells it at a loss of 12%. What is the selling price of the iron?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. ₹792.

Cost Price = ₹900

Loss% = 12%

Selling Price = 900 - (12/100 × 900)

Selling Price = 900 - (12 × 9)

Selling Price = 900 - 108

Selling Price = ₹792
