Question

An article was sold at a price of $360. If the profit made by the shopkeeper is 20%, find the cost price of the article

Answer 1

288

step by step explanation:

you first have to figure ot what

does 20% means. And this

questions is with subtracting.

So,

20% = 72

And since the question is with

subtracting we use our 360$

from before and we subtract.

360$ - 20% = 288 or

360$ - 72 = 288

I hope that explanation helped

you understand why the answer

is 288.
