Question

The cost of two articles together is rs. 2226. if the cost of one of them is 10 % more

Answer 1

Heya ✋

Let see your answer !!!

Given that

Cost of two articles together = ₹2,226

Solution

Let the cost of one article be ₹x. Then,

Cost of other article = 10 % + ₹x

= 10/100 + x

= 10 + 100x/100

According to question ,

x + 10 + 100x/100 = 2,226

=> 100x + 10/100 = 2,226

=> 100x + 10 = 2,226 × 100

=> 100x + 10 = 2,22,600

=> 100x = 2,22,600 - 10

=> 100x = 22,250

=> x = 22,250/100

=> x = 222.5

Hence , the cost of 1st article = ₹222.5

Cost of 2nd article = 10/100 + 222.5

= 10 + 22,250/100

= 22,260/100

= ₹222.6
