Let the original price of book be rs.X
CP of book=36 (given)
Discount= 40% of X
Since CP=Original price -discount
Therefore,
36=X- 40/100 ×X
36=6/10X
X=360/6
X=60
Original price of book= Rs. 60
CP of book=36 (given)
Discount= 40% of X
Since CP=Original price -discount
Therefore,
36=X- 40/100 ×X
36=6/10X
X=360/6
