Question

a trader marks his goods in such a way that after allowing a discount of 10% he gains 15% if an article costs him rupees 720 what is its marked price?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Selling price-720

Discount-10 %

Marked price-SP×100\100-discount%

720×100/100-10

720×100/90

₹800

Answer 2

Its marked price is Rs. 920.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Discount = 10%

Gain % = 15%

Cost price = Rs. 720

Let the marked price be 'x'.

According to question, we get that

$MP=\dfrac{100+Profit}{100-Discount}\times CP\\\\MP=\dfrac{100+15}{100-10}\times 720\\\\MP=\dfrac{115}{90}\times 720\\\\MP=115\times 8\\\\MP=Rs.\ 920$

Hence, its marked price is Rs. 920.
