Let the marked price be x.

Let the cost price be 100.

Then the selling price = 100 + 8

                                     = 108.


Given that the dealer allows the discount of 10% on the marked price.

90% of x = 108

90/100 * x = 108

90 * x = 108 * 100

90 * x = 10800

x = 10800/90

x = 120.


Therefore , the Marked price is 20% above the cost price.
