Question : If the cost price of a refrigerator is Rs. 17200 and the loss percentage is 8%, then what is the selling price (in Rs.) of the refrigerator?

Option 1: Rs. 15824

Option 2: Rs. 14564

Option 4: Rs. 15500

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Rs. 15824

Loss percentage = 8%
We know that,
Selling price = $\frac{(100-\text{loss percentage})}{100}\times$ Cost price
= $\frac{(100-8)}{100}\times17200$
= $\frac{92}{100}\times17200$
= Rs. 15824
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 15824.
