Question

A shopkeeper offers his customers 10% discount and still made a profit of 26% what is actual cost to him if the marked price is Rs280​

Answer 1

MRP of article =280

discount =10% of 280 =280*10/100

=28

SP = 280-28 =252

profit = 26%

let CP =x

CP+ PROFIT =SP

X+ X*26/100 =252

100X+26X =252*100

126X = 25200

X. =25200/126

X= 200

THUS CP = 200
