Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the percentage of the selling price:

discount = 8%

Selling price = 100 - 8 = 92%

Find the cost price:

Selling Price = 92%

Selling Price = Rs 216.20

92% = Rs 216.20

1% = 216.20 ÷ 92 = Ra 2.35

100% = 2.35 x 100 = Rs 235

Answer: The marked price was Rs 235
