Answer 1

Answer:

Original cost price of article is $ 600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let original cost price be Rs x

Rise of price = 9%

New price = x + 9% of x = 654

= x + 9x/100 = 654

= (100x + 9x)/ 100 = 654

= 109x/100 = 654

= x = 654 x 100 / 109

= x = $ 600 answer

Answer 2

Hieee...✌️

Answer => $600

Explanation =>

Original Cost = C

C + ( 9% of C ) = $654

C + ( 9 /100 C ) = $654

C + 0.09 C = $654

1.09 C = $654

C = $654 / 1.09

C = $600....
