Answer 1

Cost price of the article is Rs. 2250

• Raymoon sold an article at a loss of 5%.
• If he sold it for 270 Rs. more, he would have gained 7% .
• Let cost price be x.
• Loss is 5% that is loss will be 0.05x.
• Now selling price will be Cost price - loss = x - 0.05x= 0.95x.
• Now when Selling price is increased by 270, he gains a profit of 7%.

Selling price will be 0.95x + 270

• Profit will be 7% of cost price = 0.07x

Profit = Selling price - Cost price

0.07x = 0.95x + 270 - x

• Solving the equation, we get

0.07x = -0.05x +270

0.12x = 270

x = 270/0.12 = 2250

• Cost price of the article is Rs. 2250
