Question

a dealer offers a discount of 12% and makes a profit of 10% on article costing $1000.what price should be marked on it

Answer 1

Cost price = $1000

Let the Marked price be $ a

Selling price = Marked price - Discount

= a - 12 % of a

= a - 12a/100

= 88a / 100

Now,

Gain = SP - CP

=> 10% of $1000 = 88a/100 - 1000

=> 1100 = 88a/100

=> 110000 = 88a

=> 10000 = 8a

=> a = 1250

Marked price = $1250
