Given that,he sold at a gain of 10%..........so he sold the article at 110% of original cost price----(1)

so that he got 360 rupees less when he sold the same article at a loss of 8%.-----(2)

loss of 8% means he sold article at 92% of cost price...------(3)

from above three we can write
110% of c.p = 92% of c.p+360

by solving we got "c.p=2000"

cost price = 100Unit *20= 2,000
