Question

After allowing a discount of 10%, an article was sold for Rs.720. What was its marked price?

Answer 1

Answer:

792

Step-by-step explanation:

As item sold at 10% discount at 720 means 100%-10%=90%

90%=720

we need to find 10% so

720*10/100=72

so 90%+10%=100%

which is 720+72=792

marked price =792

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let the maked price be x

x-(10/100 × x )=720

x-(1/10 ×x)=720

x-(x/10)=720

(10x-x)/10=720

9x=720×10

9x=7200

x=7200/9

x=800
