Answer:
Correct answer is ₹ 750
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Marked price = ₹ 1250
Discount = 31%
According to formulae selling price is:
Marked price x [100 - discount%/100]
1250 x [100-31/100]
1250 x 69/100 = ₹862.5
∴ Selling price is ₹ 862.5
Now,
Selling price = ₹862.5
According to formulae cost price is:
Cost price= [100/100+gain%] x S.P
[100/100+15] x 862.5 = 100/115 x 862.5 = ₹750
∴ Cost price is ₹750
Hope this helps!
