Question

After allowing two successive discounts of 15% and 5% a fon is sold for rupees 2907.what is the marked price of the fan?

Answer 1

Heya,

Let d1 = 15% and d2 = 5%

The formula is
$mp(1 - \frac{d1}{100} )(1 - \frac{d2}{100} ) = sp$
So,

$mp = \frac{sp}{ (1 - \frac{d1}{100} )(1 - \frac{d2}{100} )}$
So,
$= > mp = \frac{2907}{ (1 - \frac{15}{100} )(1 - \frac{5}{100}) }$
So,
$mp = \frac{2907}{ \frac{17}{20} \times \frac{19}{20} }$
So,

$mp = \frac{2907 \times 20 \times 20}{17 \times 19}$

So,

MP = 9×20×20 = 3600

Answer 2

Answer:

The marked price of the fan is Rs. 3600.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the marked price be x.

The price of fan after 15% discount is

$x(1-\frac{15}{100})=x(1-0.15)=0.85x$

The price of fan after 5% discount is

$0.85x(1-\frac{5}{100})=0.85x(1-0.05)\Rightarrow (0.85x)(0.95)=0.8075x$

After allowing two successive discounts of 15% and 5% a fon is sold for rupees 2907.

$0.8075x=2907$

$x=\frac{2907}{0.8075}=3600$

Therefore the marked price of the fan is Rs. 3600.
