Answer:

The cost price of the first article is 1190 and the profit is Rs.5810.

Step-by-step explanation:

So first, you have to divide 7000 by 100 and then multiply by 20.

=1400

Then divide 1400 by 100 and then multiply by 15.  

=210

Subtract 210 from 1400

=1190

To find the profit subtract 1190 from the original price of the article.

=5810

(7000/10) · 20

1400/100

1400-210

7000-1190

=5810
