Sunil sold an antique flower vase to Vinay at 12% more than the cost price. If Vinay paid 17,696 for the vase what was its original cost price ?
Let the cost price of antique flower vase be Rs x
According to given condition
x + 12% of x = 17696
1.12x = 17696
x = $$\frac{17696}{1.12}$$
= 15800
The original cost price of vase is Rs 15800.
