B marked it up by 10% above the price at which A has purchased it and then sold it after giving a discount of Rs. 91. If B suffered a loss of 10% in the transaction, then find the cost price of the article for A?Solution
Let the cost price of the article for A be Rs. x Therefore, cost price of the article for B = Rs. 1.125x Marked price of the article = Rs. 1.1x Selling price of the article for B = 0.90 × 1.125x = Rs. 1.0125x According to the question, 1.1x – 1.0125x = 91 Or, x = 91/0.0875 = 1040 Therefore, cost price of the article for A = Rs. 9250
