Labelled price of cupboard $=Rs. 6500$

Selling price $(S.P.)$ $=\frac{95}{100} 	imes 6500=Rs. 6175$

Profit $\%=15$

Let $x$ be the cost price

$	herefore \quad \frac{ S.P. - C.P. }{ C.P. } 	imes 100=\% 	ext { profit }$

i.e. $\quad \frac{6175-x}{x} 	imes 100=15$

i.e. $\frac{6175-x}{x}=\frac{15}{100}$

i.e. $\frac{6175}{x}=1+\frac{15}{100}=\frac{115}{100}$

$	herefore$ $x=\frac{6175 	imes 100}{115}=5369.56=Rs. 5350$
