Question

a shirt was sold for ₹884 after giving a discount of 15% on the marked price . find the marked price

Answer 1

Let marked price be x
According to the question,
x-15℅ of x=Rs.884
x-15x/100=Rs.884
x-3x/20=Rs.884
(20x-3x)/20=Rs.884
17x/20=Rs.884
17x=Rs.884×20
17x=Rs.17680
x=Rs.17680/17
x=Rs.1040

Therefore the marked price was Rs.1040

Here is your answer
SP = Rs 884
Discount% = 15%

As we know the formula
$mp = \frac{sp \times 100}{(100 - discount\%)} \\ mp = \frac{884 \times 100}{(100 - 15)} \\ mp = \frac{88400}{85} \\ mp = 1040$
So Marked Price is Rs 1040
