Answer»

Answer:

answer is 40

Step-by-step explanation:

ASSUME assume the cost of article is X the person SOLD at 20% loss

loss % = C.P - S.P/C.P = X - S.P/X = 20/100

therefore, S.P = 0.8

if if he had sold it for rupees 12 more then he would have gained 10%

gain % = S.P - C.P/C.P = (0.8x + 12) - x / x

therefore, 12 - 0.2x = 0.1x

12 = 0.3x

X = 40
