CP of a person = a
CP if he bought 10% loss = a x 90/100 = 90a/100
SP of person = 80a/100
SP if he sold it more = 80a/100 + 74
(80a/100 + 74)/90a/100 x 100 = 130
(800a + 74000 = 130 x 9a = 1170a
370a = 74000
a = 200
CP of an article = Rs. 200
If SP is 220 profit will be = 220 - 200 = 20
In percent = 20/200 x 100 = 10%
