Question

A person dealing with computer parts allow 20% discount on the marked price of the components and still makes a profit of 25% .if his gain on the sale of a component is Rs 225.find the marked price of the component.​

Answer 1

profit= 225

since profit= 25 %

CP = 225/25 × 100=900

SP = 900 + 225= 1125

Discount is always applied on marked price

SP = 80%of MP

MP = 1125/80 ×100=Rs 1406.25
