M.P = S.P × 100 / 100 - Discount %

=> ₹ ( 828 × 100 / 100 - 8 )

=> ₹ ( 828 × 100 / 92 )

=> ₹ 900

Hence ,

The Marked Price of the book is ₹ 900 .

Answer 2

Answer:

Marked price of the book = 900

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Discount % = 8%

Selling price of the book = 828

To find

The marked price

Recall the formula

Discount = Marked Price ×Discount% ------------------(1)

Discount = Marked price - selling price ---------------(2)

Solution

Let the marked price be P

Then from equation(1)

Discount  = P × 8% = $\frac{8P}{100}$

From equation(2) we get

$\frac{8P}{100}$ = P - 828

P - $\frac{8P}{100}$ = 828

$\frac{92P}{100}$ = 828

P = $\frac{828 X100}{92}$

= 900

∴Marked price of the book = 900
