Answer:
[tex] \boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{ \: Rs \: 200}}}}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Selling price ( SP ) = Rs 230
Profit % = 15 %
Cost price ( CP ) = ?
Finding the Cost price
[tex] \boxed{ \sf{cost \: price = \frac{selling \: price \times 100}{100 + profit \: \%}}} [/tex]
plug the values
⇒[tex] \sf{ \frac{230 \times 100}{100 + 15 \: }} [/tex]
Muliply the numbers : 230 and 100
⇒[tex] \sf{ \frac{23000}{100 + 15}} [/tex]
Add the numbers : 100 and 15
⇒[tex] \sf{ \frac{23000}{115} }[/tex]
Divide 23000 by 115
⇒[tex] \sf{200}[/tex]
Cost price ( CP ) = Rs 200
