Answer 2

Answer:

900 Rs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that selling price of article ( S.P ) = 1017 Rs

And profit % = 13 %

Let the cost price of article = 100 unit

Then the selling price ,

S.P = C.P + Profit

S.P = 100 + 13 % of 100

S.P = 100 + 13 = 113 unit

113 unit = 1017 Rs

1 unit = 1017 / 113 Rs = 9 Rs

Hence, the cost price

C.P = 100 unit = 900 Rs
