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
