Steve Sells an article for 1200 Rs And he makes a profit of 20% in the Transaction. So What is the Cost price?
A). Rs. 1000
B). Rs. 2000
C). Rs. 3000
D). Rs. 4000
Rs. 1000
We take CP = x
Now If i sell an article at 20% profit then what will be our SP in terms of x ?
simple 1.2x [ Because is told you percentage to decimal conersion So 20% here is nothing but 0.2x and total SP will be x+ 0.2x = 1.2x remember add in case of profit and subtract in case of loss]
Given, he sold the article at 1200 Rs
So 1.2x = 1200 Rs
So x = 1000 Rs
