Answer 2

Given :

• The shirt was sold for Rs 442 after allowing a discount of 15% on the marked price.

To find :

• The marked price of the shirt.

Solution :

Let,

M.P be Rs x

Therefore ,

Discount = 15% of Rs x

$= Rs \frac{15}{100} \times x = Rs \frac{3x}{20}$

Therefore ,

S.L =

$Rs(x - \frac{3x}{20} ) = Rs \frac{17x}{20}$

According to the question

$\frac{17x}{20} = 884$

or

$x = \frac{884 \times 20}{17} = 1040$

Thus , Marked price of the shirt is Rs 1040
