Answer:

₹ 500

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cost price when selling price and loss percentage is given, use the below mentioned formula:

[tex]\sf \boxed{Cost \ price =\dfrac{Selling \ Price *100}{(100 - loss \%)}}[/tex]

                  [tex]\sf = \dfrac{415 * 100}{100-17}\\\\=\dfrac{415*100}{83}\\\\= 5 *100[/tex]

                  = ₹ 500
