उत्तर
On selling an article for ₹ 329, a dealer lost 6%. The cost price of the article is ₹ 350.
Explanation:
Given, SP = ₹ 329 and Loss% = 6%
We know that,
Loss% = `"Loss"/(CP) xx 100`
⇒ 6 = `(CP - SP)/(CP) xx 100` ......[∵ Loss = CP – SP]
⇒ 6CP = 100(CP – SP)
⇒ `6/100`CP = CP – SP
⇒ CP – `6/100`CP = 329 ......[∵ SP = ₹ 329, given]
⇒ `94/100`CP = 329
⇒ CP = `(329 xx 100)/94`
∴ CP = ₹ 350
