उत्तर

Given:

  • Principal (P) = Rs. 2550,
  • Rate (R) = 7.5% per annum,
  • Time (T) = `8/12` = 0.6667 years,
  • Cash paid = Rs. 1422.50.

Step 1: Calculate the simple interest

The formula for simple interest is:

`SI = (P.R.T)/100`

Substitute the values:

`SI = (2550xx7.5xx0.6667)/100`

= Rs. 127.50.

Step 2: Total debt to be repaid

Total debt = P + SI = 2550 + 127.50 = Rs.2677.50.

Step 3: Price of the television

The price of the television is the remaining amount after deducting the cash paid:

Price of television = Total debt − Cash paid.

Price of television = 2677.50 − 1422.50

= Rs. 1255.
