Answer:

by selling an article for rupees 270 cost of 10% hundred is suffering and find the cop of the article and the price at which the article must be sold in order to gain 12%

Answer 2

Let cost price of an article be Rs. A

Profit percentage = 10% = loss percentage

Then,

⇒ 10 = [(A - S.P)/A] × 100

⇒ A = 10A - 10S.P  

⇒ S.P = 9A/10  

Selling price of an article = Rs. 270  

Given,  

⇒ 9A/10 = 270  

⇒ A = 300  

∴ Cost price of an article is Rs. 300.
