Question

a sofa set was sold for rupees 11520 after giving successive discount of 20% and 10% respectively what was the market price of the sofa set​

Answer 1

Answer:

SP = 1152

Let MP be x

first discount = 20% of MP

=20/100 × x

= x/5

price after discount= x- x/5

= 4x/5

second discount= 10% of new price

= 10/100 × 4x/5

2x/25

price after second discount= SP= 4x/5-2x/25

=18x/25

ATQ,

18x/25 =11520

x = 16000

So,MP= ₹16000
