Here, Aditya paid $Rs. 59.40$ for article

But before that there were $3$ transactions of gain $20 \%$ , $10 \%$ and $12.5 \%$

So, initially Ram would have bought article at Rs. $x$

$\Rightarrow \ x 	imes \frac{100+20}{100} 	imes \frac{100+10}{100} 	imes \frac{100+12.5}{100}=$ $Rs. 59.40$

$x=\frac{59.40 	imes 100 	imes 100 	imes 100}{120 	imes 110 	imes 112.5}=	ext { Rs. } 40$

Ram sells an article to Girish at a gain $20 \%$, Girish sells it to Sanjay at a gain of $10 \%$ and Sanjay sells it to Aditya at a gain of $12 \frac{1}{2} \% .$ If aditya pay $Rs.\, 59.40.$ What did it cost Ram in $Rs.$?
