Answer

Selling Price = 12,400

Let the M.P. be 100.

First discount =10% =10010×100= 10

S.P. after the first discount =100−10= 90

Second discount =20% =10020×90= 18

Selling Price after the second discount =90−18= 72

If S.P. is 72, then M.P. is 100.

When S.P. is 12,400,

M.P. =7212400×100= 18,000

M.P. = 18,000.
