Question

A shopkeeper marks his goods 40 percent above the cost price and allows his customer a discount of 10 percent on the marked price. Find the cost of that article on which they may be a gain of ruppes 325 on selling it.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose cost price = 100

So markup price is = 140

Discount on markup price is

140-14=126

So we gain 26 on ₹100 good

So now compare both gains:

Cost price of original good is

(325*100)/26 = 1250
