A man sells an article at a certain price
A man sells an article at a certain price and suffers a loss of 20%. If he sells the article at ₹100 more, he gets a profit of 30%. Find the cost price of the article (in ₹).
एक व्यक्ति एक वस्तु को एक निश्चित मूल्य पर बेचता है और उसे 20% की हानि होती है। यदि वह वस्तु को ₹100 अधिक पर बेचे, तो उसे 30% का लाभ प्राप्त होता है। वस्तु का क्रय मूल्य (₹ में) ज्ञात कीजिए।
Detailed Solution & Logic
200
Let cost price = ₹x
Loss 20% = Selling price = $0.8x$
Profit 30%= Selling price = $1.3x$
Given difference = ₹100
$1.3x - 0.8x = 100$
$0.5x = 100$
$x = 200$
Answer = ₹200
