Question

a discount of 12% is given on the market price of an article and it is sold for 880 Rupees find its market price

Answer 1

Let the market price be Rs. x

discount = 20%of x
= 20/100×x
=x/5
so,SP=x-x/5
= 4x/5

since,4x/5=880
x=880×5/4
x= Rs.1100

Answer 2

Let the market price be x,
x - 12x/100 = 880
25x/25 - 3x/25 = 880
22x/25 = 880
x = 880 * 25 / 22
x = 1000

So, the market price is Rs 1000.
