Selling price of the article.

Profit percentage %.

To do:

We have to find the cost price.

Solution:

Let the cost price of the article be .

Profitpercent = SP-CP/CP × 100

5 = 250-x/x x 100

5x = (250-x) 100

x = (250-20) 20

x = 250 (20) - 20x

x + 20x = 5000

21x = 5000

x = 5000/21

x = 238

Therefore; cost price of the article is Rs 238
