sp=495

Profit %=10%

cp=x

10=(495-x) x 100/x

10=49500-100x/x

10x = 49 500-100x

110x = 49 500

x = 49 500/110=450

HEY THERE....✌✌
UR ANS IS HERE...


●COST PRICE = Market price or original price of a commodity is known as Cost price.


●SALES PRICE = A commodity sold on which price is known as Sales price.


●GAIN / PROFIT = When we sold a commodity in more than its cost price we earn Gain.


●LOSS = When we sold a commodity in less than its cost price we earn loss.


GIVEN---

sales price = 495
Gain = 10%
Cost price=???

C.P. = S.P.×100/100+ GAIN/LOSS PERCENT
= 495 ×100/100+ 10
= 495 ×100/110
= Rs.450

So , the article's cost price is Rs.450 .
