Answer 2

let,the cost price of the article be Rs x

Now, s.p of the article =c.p -p%of c.p

=Rs (x -5%of x)

=Rs (x - x/5)

=Rs 4x/5

According to question,New s.p. of the article

= Rs 4x/5+Rs 50

=Rs 4x+250/5

Again , c.p = s.p - l% of c.p

x = 4x+250/5 -5% of x

x+x/20=4x+250/5

21x/20=4x+250/5

21x×5=(4x+250) ×20

105x= 80x + 5000

105x - 80x = 5000

25x = 5000

x = 5000/25

x= Rs 200
