Answer 2

The list price should be 2720 rupees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

For two successive discount use the formula: $( x + y -\frac{xy}{100})\%$

It is given that a television set listed at rs 3200 is sold to retailer at succesive discount of 25% and 15%.

Total discount is =$( 25 +15 -\frac{25\times15}{100})\%$

Total discount is =$( 25 +15 -3.75)\%$

Total discount is =$36.25\%$

He must need to pay 100%-36.25% = 63.75% of 3200.

CP=$\frac{63.75}{100}\times3200= 2040$

Thus, the cost price for retailer is rs 2040.

Now he want 20% profit.

Thus, the selling price should be: 2040+20% of 2040

SP = 2040+0.2×2040

SP = 2448

Thus, selling price should be 2448.

It is given that he want to allow 10% discount and after the discount the price of T.V should be 2448.

Let the marked price is x.

Then, x - 10% of x = 2448

$x-0.1x=2448\\0.9x=2448\\x=2720$

Hence, the list price should be 2720 rupees.
