Question

A water purifier was sold for 2820 after a discount of 6%. Find the: 1) marked
price 2) discount.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Selling price = Marked price - Discount

Given selling price = 2820/-

Discount = 6%

Let marked price = X

• Discount is calculated on Marked price.

2820 = x - 6% of x

2820 = X - 6/100x

2820= 100x - 6x

100

2820 * 100 = 94x

x = 2820 *100

94

x = 3000

Marked price = 3000

Discount = Mp - Sp

3000-2820 = 180
