Answer:

8000/9

Explanation:

Loss%=CP-RS/CP*100%------------------------------------------- The formula

Let's substitute

10/100=CP-800/CP

Crisscross it

10*CP=100(CP-800)

10CP=100CP-80000

-90CP= -80000

CP=-80000/-90= So the answer is 8000/9

Notice that I understand "rs" as selling price

Explanation:

Sp = rs 800

loss = 10%

Cp = ?

we know that,

cp= sp×100÷ 100-L%

= 800×100÷100-10

= 80000÷90

= 888.89#
