Question

an almirah is sold at rs5225 after allowing a discount of 5°/• . Find is marked price

Answer 1

Answer:

Marked price of the almirah = Rs 5500

Step-by-step explanation:

selling price of an almirah (s.p) = Rs 5225

Discount (d) = 5%

Marked price = M

$\boxed {Selling \: price = marked \: price \left(\frac{100-d}{100}\right)}$

$\implies 5225 = M \left( \frac{100-5}{100}\right)$

$\implies 5225 = M \left( \frac{95}{100}\right)$

$\implies 5225 \times \frac{100}{95}= M$

$\implies M = Rs \: 5500$

Therefore,

Marked price of the almirah = Rs 5500
