\huge\bigstar{\underline{\mathfrak{\green{Correct\: Question:-}}}}

A man bought a certain no. of toys for Rs.180; he kept one for his own use and sold the rest for Rs.1 each more than he gave for them; besides getting his own toy for nothing he made a profit of Rs. 10. find no. of toys.

\huge\bigstar{\underline{\mathfrak{\green{Solution:-}}}}

\large{\sf{The\: correct\:answer\:is\:20}}

Lets the number toys be x and cost price of each toy is y.

so, xy = 180

And after removing one item, and increasing cost price by 1 rupee

Total cost is (x - 1)(y - 1) = 180 + 10 (Here, 10 is profit)

\impliesxy - y x-1 = 190

\implies180 - y x = 191

\impliesx - y = 11

[since xy = 180, y = 180 / x]

\impliesx - 180 / x = 11

\impliesx² - 180 = 11x
