Find the original selling price of the article.

Answer 1

Answer:

Rs. 500

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price = 100 + Profit = SP = 110

Cost price = 100 = loss = SP = 90

Article price = x

11/10x - 100 = 9/10x

11x/10 - 9x/10 = 100

2x/10 = 100

2x = 10 x 100 = 1000

x = 1000/2 = 500

= Rs. 500
