Answer 2

$\boxed{\huge\mathfrak{answer}}$

Step-1:-

Marked price =Rs.280

Discount = 20%

Profit = 12%

Step-2:-

Let the orginal or cost price of the article be x ,Then,

we need to find 20% of Rs.280,

so, we can say that

Marked price = Cost price - Discount

Now we put the values in place,

$\implies \: 280 = x + 20\% \: of \: x$

$\implies \: 280 = x + \frac{20x}{100}$

$\implies \: 280 = \frac{100x + 20x}{100}$

$\implies \: 280 \times 100= 100x + 20x$

$\implies \: 28000 = 120x$

$\implies \: x = \frac{28000}{120}$

$\implies \: x = \frac{700}{3}$

$\implies \: x = 233(approx)$

So the cost price of the product is Rs.233.

• Note: The twist of the question here is that there is no use of profit percentage and it is given to confuse students.
