Question

A dealer purchased a fan for rs.1080.After allowing a discount of 25%on its marked price,he gains 25%.Find the marked price of the fan.

Answer 1

marked price is ₹1800

Answer 2

Solutions :-


Given :

Cost Price = Rs 1080
Discount on its marked price = 25%
Profit % = 25%


Selling price = C.P + Profit% of C.P
= 1080 + 25% of 1080
= 1080 + 0.25 × 1080
= 1080 + 270
= 1350

So,
Selling price = Rs 1350

Now,
Find the marked price of fan :-

M.P = (S.P × 100)/(100 - discount)
= (1350 × 100)/(100 - 25)
= 135000/75
= 1800



Hence,
The marked price of fan is Rs 1800
