Question

By selling an article at 2500, I found that I gained 25% of the cost price. How much did I pay.

Answer 1

2000 is the answer hope it helps

Explanation:

selling price=2500

profit=25%

cost price+profit=selling price

let cost price be 100

profit percentage= 25%=25

selling price=100+25=125

selling price= 2500 given,

cost price=(2500/125)×100=2000

cost price of good is 2000.
