Question

9. On a dining table, a carpenter allows a discount of 16% to his customers and still gains 20%. Find the
marked price of the dining table which costs the carpenter 1190.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Marked Price = M

Discount 16 % = 0.16 M

Selling Price = M - 0.16 M = 0.84 M

Cost = 1190 =

Gain 20% = 0.2 * 1190 = 238 =

Selling price = 1190 + 238 = 1428 =

0.84 M = 1428

M = 1700
