discount on the marked price of the cycles and still
ne cycle, find the marked​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rohit sold the item for 660  

profit % = 10  

Let us suppose his buying price be x  

so,  

x + 10% of x = 660  

⇒ x + 10/100 × x = 660

⇒ 11/10 x = 660 ⇒ x = 600

that means he bought the item for rs. 600

now,  

he bought it at 25% discount.  

Let us suppose the Marked Price of the item be y

so,  

y - 25% of y = 600

⇒ y - 25/100 y = 600

⇒ y - 1/4 y = 600 ⇒ y = 800

so the MP IS 800
