Anu allows a discount on the marked price Of an article and still makes a profit Of 25%. If she gains ₹44.80 on the sale of the article, then the cost price of the article is:
Let the cost price of the article =x Rs.
As per the question, gain percentage =25%
Hence the selling price of the article $$=\dfrac{125x}{100}=1.25x$$
Gain amount $$=44.80Rs.$$
We know that gain= Selling price - Cost price
$$\Rightarrow 44.80=1.25x-x$$
$$\Rightarrow 0.25x=44.80$$
$$\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{44.80}{0.25}=179.20$$Rs
