Answer 1

$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{Dear}\mathrm{Student}, \\ \mathrm{CP}=1500\mathrm{and}\mathrm{loss}=250 \\ \mathrm{so}\mathrm{loss}\% \\ =\frac{\mathrm{loss}}{\mathrm{CP}}\times 100=\frac{250}{1500}\times 100=16.67\% \\ 2) \\ \mathrm{loss}\%=\frac{\mathrm{loss}}{\mathrm{CP}}\times 100 \\ \mathrm{loss}=\frac{\mathrm{loss}\%\times \mathrm{CP}}{100}=\frac{875\times 12}{100}=105 \\ \mathrm{So}\mathrm{SP}\hspace{0.17em}=\mathrm{CP}-\mathrm{loss}=875-105=\mathrm{Rs}.770 \\ \mathrm{Regards} \end{gathered}$$
