Let the original price of the article is x.
Then 16% of original price is =x*16/100.
Then after increasing it
becomes=x+x*16/100
=x*116/100
So,
x*116/100=1479
or,x=1479*100/116
or,x=1479/100
or,x=1275 (ans)
Then 16% of original price is =x*16/100.
Then after increasing it
becomes=x+x*16/100
=x*116/100
So,
x*116/100=1479
or,x=1479*100/116
or,x=1479/100
or,x=1275 (ans)
