Question

An almirah is sold at ₹5,225 after allowing a discount of 5%. Find its marked price.

Answer 1

Price of almirah after discount =5225

Discount =5%

So let me be x

Discount given =5% of x = 5/100*x=x/20

A.T.Q.

x-x/20=5225

Take the LCM of 1 and 20=20

20-x/20=19x/20=5225 ( transposing)

Solve the equation

x= 5225/20/19 do the reciprocal

x= 5225*20/19=5500
