Answer 2

$\huge\bold{\mathtt{Question⇒}}$

A man sold an article for ₹ 44 gaining one by 10 th of his CP. The CP of the article is ??

$\huge\bold{\mathtt{Given⇒}}$

• A man sold an article for rs 44 gaining one by 10 th of his CP.

$\huge\bold{\mathtt{To\:find⇒}}$

The CP of the article.

$\huge\bold{\mathtt{Solution⇒}}$

Let the CP be ₹ x.

So, profit

= $₹({\frac{1}{10}}\:of\:x)$

= $₹({\frac{1}{10}}×x)$

= $₹({\frac{x}{10}})$

We know that:

• SP = CP + Gain

According to condition,

$x+{\frac{x}{10}}=44$

$➳\:{\frac{(10x+x)}{10}}=44$

$➳\:{\frac{11x}{10}}=44$

$➳\:11x=(44×10)$

$➳\:11x=440$

$➳\:x={\frac{440}{11}}$

$➳\:x=40$

$\huge\bold{\mathtt{Hence⇒}}$

x = 40

CP = ₹ x = ₹ 40

$\huge\bold{\mathtt{Therefore⇒}}$

The CP of the article is ₹ 40.
