Correct Answer: 275


Solution : Selling price = Rs. 200
Loss = 20% of cost price
Selling price = cost price – loss = cost price – 20% of cost price
⇒ Rs. 200 = 80% of cost price
⇒ Cost price = Rs. 250
Profit = 10%
⇒ Selling price = Cost price + profit
= Rs. 250 + Rs. 25 = Rs. 275
Hence, the correct answer is 275.
