Question

A garment dealer allows his customer 10% discount on a marked price of the goods and still gets profit of 25% . What is the cost if the marked price of a shirt is ₹1250

Answer 1

Solutions :-

Given :
Marked price of a shirt = ₹ 1250
Discount on its marked price = 10%
Profit = 25%


Find the Selling price of shirt :-

S.P = M.P - discount % of M.P
= 1250 - 10% of 1250
= 1250 - 125
= 1125


Find the cost price of shirt :-

C.P = (S.P × 100)/(100 + Profit)
= (1125 × 100)/(100 + 125)
= 112500/125
= 900


Hence,
The cost price of shirt = ₹ 900
