A laptop is sold for $1274 after a discount of 9%. What is the marked price of the laptop ?

Answer 1

Answer: 1,159.34

Saved amount 114.66

Step-by-step explanation:

1274 multiply by 9% and change 9% in 0.09 decimal

Answer 2

Suppose Marked price = x

According to question ,

• x - x . 9% = 1274 $
• x - 0.09 x = 1274
• x ( 1 - 0.09 ) = 1274
• 0.91 x = 1274
• x = 1274 / 0.91
• x = 1400 $

Original price = $ 1400
