Greetings..!

Selling Price of article = ₹ 495

Gain Percentage = 10%

By using formula for Cost Price, we have :

(100/100+Gain%)*SP = (100/110)*495=₹450

Answer : Hence , Cost Price of articles is ₹450.

Answer 2

Hey mate here is your answer:
_________________________
Let the cost price be X
so , A.T.Q: X+(10/100*X)= 495
= X+ X/10=. 495
11x/10=495
X=495*10/11
X= 450 Rs.
