Hi ,

Let the original price = Rs x

increased % = g = 14%

price of an article after increase ( y ) = Rs 1995

x = ( 100 y )/( 100 + g )

= ( 100 × 1995 )/( 100 + 14 )

=199500 / 114

= Rs 1750

Amount of increaments = 1995 - 1750

= Rs 245


Therefore ,

Original price of an article = x = Rs 1750

I hope this helps you.

subir12: ok

the present price =1995
the increment = 14%
therefore, increasing price = (1995*14/114)
=245
therefore, original price =(1995-245)
=1750(answer)
