  • Selling price = 4000
  • Profit = 25%
  • We know,

  • \sf cost \: \: price \: \: = (100)/(100 + profit\%) * selling \: \: price \\
  • Therefore, cost price


\sf= (100)/(100 + 25) * 4000 \\ = (100)/(125) * 4000 \\ = (4)/(5) * 4000 \\ = 4 * 800 \\ = 3200


\huge \sf \: Answer

The cost price is 3200.

Hope you could get an idea from here
