Question

By selling every article at a loss of 10 rs, a person had 16 2/3 percent loss. What was the cost price of each article.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Cp = 60 RS.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Cp = x

SP = x-10

loss% = (loss×100)/cp

16 2/3% = (10×100)/x

50/3 = 1000/x

x = 1000×3/50

x = 60

CP = 60
