$C.P.=₹\ 550,\ loss=1\ whole\ \frac{2}{5},\ S.P.=?$.

Given: $C.P.=₹\ 550,\ loss=1\ whole\ \frac{2}{5}=\frac{7}{5}$.

To do: To find $S.P.$

Solution:

$S.P.=\frac{C.P.\times( 100-loss)}{100}$

$\Rightarrow S.P.=\frac{550( 100-\frac{7}{5})}{100}$

$\Rightarrow S.P.=\frac{550( \frac{500-7}{5})}{100}$
 

$\Rightarrow S.P.=\frac{550( \frac{493}{5})}{100}$

$\Rightarrow S.P.=\frac{110\times493}{100}$

$\Rightarrow S.P.=542.3$

Thus, S.P. is $₹\ 542.3$
