as marked price, the dealer gains 20%. Find:

the marked price of the refrigerator
b.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Since we have given that

Cost price of refrigerator = Rs. 25500

Profit % = 205

Discount % = 20%

We need to find the marked price.

So, it becomes,

\begin{gathered}MP=CP=\dfrac{100+Profit}{100-Discount}\\\\MP=25500\times \dfrac{100+20}{100-20}\\\\MP=25500\times \dfrac{120}{80}\\\\MP=38250\end{gathered}

MP=CP=

100−Discount

100+Profit

MP=25500×

100−20

100+20

MP=25500×

80

120

MP=38250
