Answer 2

Answer:

• The cost price of the chair is Rs 220.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

• Selling price of a chair = Rs 286
• Profit on selling the chair = 30%

To Find:

• The cost of the chair.

Formula used:

• CP = (SP × 100)/(100 + Profit %)

Where,

• CP = Cost price
• SP = Selling price

Finding the cost price of the chair:

⟶ CP = (286 × 100)/(100 + 30)

⟶ CP = 28600/130

⟶ CP = 220

∴ The cost price of the chair = Rs 220
