• Cost of an object is increased by 12%. If the current cost is ₹ 896.

${ \huge{ \underline{ \bf{ \green{To \: find :-}}}}}$

• Original cost of an object ?

${ \huge{ \underline{ \bf{ \pink{Solution :-}}}}}$

☯︎ Let the original cost of an object be 'x'

${ \bold{ \underline{ \green{ \bf{◆ According \: to \: the \: question◆}}}}}$

$⇒{ \sf{ \frac{12 \: x}{100} + x = 896}}$

$⇒{ \sf{ \frac{112 x}{100} = 896}}$

$⇒{ \sf{112x = 89600}}$

$⇒{ \sf{x = \frac{89600}{112} = { \: { \boxed{ \sf{ \orange{800}}}}}}} \star$

▶ Therefore, The original cost of an object is ₹ 800
