Question

After allowing a discount of 12%, a fan was sold for rs 2,200. Then its marked price is

Answer 1

let the marked price be x.
selling price=2,200
discount=12%
12% of x=2,200
x=2200*100/12

Answer 2

Let the MP be RS. 100
Discount = 12%
SP = MP ×(100-D%)/100
= 100×(100-12)/100
=RS. 88

If SP is RS. 88 then MP is RS. 100
If SP is Rs. 1 then MP is RS. 100/88
If SP is RS. 2200 then MP is RS. 100×2200/88
$so \: sp \: is \:rs. \: 2500$
