ramesh sold an article at a profit of 10%.had it been sold for RS 75 more the profit would have been 16 %find the cost price of the article

Answer»

Let the cp be X


sp 1 = x + 10% of x = 110/100 x

sp 2 = x + 16% of x = 116/100 x


sp2 - sp1 = 75

116x/100 - 110x/100 = 75

6x/100 = 75

x = 7500/6

x = 1250


So we have cp = 1250
