To find ,

What is the actual cost to him if an article marked rs. 560?

Step-by-step explanation:

_____________________

MP = ₹ 560, Discount = 10%

SP = ₹ 560 - 10% of ₹ 560

$= \: 560 - \frac{10}{100} \times 560$

$= 560 - 56 = 504$

Now , profit = 26%

$∴ \: CP = \frac{100 \times SP \: }{100 + profit \: } = \: \frac{100 \times 504}{100 + 26}$

$= \frac{100 \times 504}{126} = 400$
