$\underline{SOLUTION}$ ➡

$Let ,\\ \\ Cost \: price \: of \: the \: saree \: =Rs \: . \: x \\ \\ \\ Profit \: = 15\% \\ \\ \\So, \: \: Selling \: price \: of \: the \: saree \: = Rs. \: (x + 15\% \: of \: x) \\ \\ = Rs \: .(x + \frac{15}{100} x) \\ \\ = Rs. \: ( \frac{100x + 15x}{100} ) \\ \\ = Rs \: . \: \frac{115x}{100}$

$Given ,\\ \\ Selling \: price \: of \: the \: saree \: = Rs \: . \: 2300 \\ \\ A.T.Q., \\ \\ Rs. (\frac{115x}{100} ) = rRs.2300 \\ \\ = > \frac{115x}{100} = 2300 \\ \\ = > 115x = 230000 \\ \\ = > x = \frac{230000}{115} \\ \\ = > x = 2000$
