$\underline{\boxed{\bold\green{Explanation}}}$

$\huge\mathfrak\purple{Given}$

$\red \leadsto \: Selling \: price = Rs \: 510$

$\red\leadsto \: comission = 15\%$

$\red\leadsto \: Let \: the \: marked \: price = Rs \: x$

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

$\blue\leadsto \: selling \: price \: = x - 15\% x$

$\blue\leadsto510= x - \frac{15}{100}× x$

$\blue\leadsto510= x - \frac{85}{100}× x$

$\blue\leadsto \: x= \frac{100×510}{85}$

$\blue\leadsto \: x= \frac{51000}{85}$

$\blue \leadsto \: \blue x\blue=\blue 6\blue0\blue0$

$Thus \: the \: marked \: price = 600$
