Question

a shop gives 25%discount what would be the selling price of a dress marked as 1250​

Answer 1

Given: 20% of CP = Rs.225/- (1)

75% of Marked Price = 120% of CP ( deduced)

Since 20% of CP = 225, CP= 225×5=1125

120% of ÇP = CP+Profit or 225+1125=1350

So 75% of Marked Price = 1350

Therefore 100% of Marked Price =100×1350÷75

Or Rs.1800.

Therefore Marked Price of the Saree is Rs.1800/-
