Answer 1

$Given \: selling \: price \: of \: an \: article$

$(s.p )= Rs \: 329$

$loss (l) = 6\%$

$Let \: cost \: price = c.p$

$c.p = \frac{ 100 \times s.p}{100-l }$

$= \frac{ 100 \times 329}{100- 6 }$

$= \frac{ 100 \times 329}{94 }$

$= Rs \: 350$

Therefore.,

$\red{ Cost \:price \: of \: an \:article } \green { = Rs\: 350}$
