______________________________
Explanation:
CP = [tex]\frac{SP(100)}{100 + PP}[/tex]
Basically, what this formula is saying is that to find the cost price (CP), we must multiply the sale price (SP) by 100, and divide the product by the sum of 100 + profit percentage (PP).
CP = [tex]\frac{180(100)}{100 + 20}[/tex]
CP = [tex]\frac{18000}{120}[/tex]
CP = 150
Answer:
$150
Step-by-step explanation:
let cp=x
(20/100*x) +x=180
1/5x+x=180
6x/5=180
6x=180*5
x=(180*5)/6
x=150
