Answer 2

✬ Marked Price = Rs 5500 ✬

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

• Selling Price (S.P) of almirah is Rs 5225.
• Discount % is 5 %.

To Find:

• What is the Marked Price (M.P) of almirah ?

Solution: Let the marked price of almirah be Rs x.

∴ Discount on almirah = 5% of M.P

➟ Discount = 5 % of x

➟ Discount = (5/100 $\times$ x)

➟ Discount = 5x/100 = 0.05x

★ We know that Selling Price =( Marked Price – Discount ) ★

$\implies{\rm }$ Rs 5225 = Rs ( x – 0.05x )

$\implies{\rm }$ 5225 = ( x – 5x/100 ) Take LCM

$\implies{\rm }$ 5225 = ( 100x – 5x/100 )

$\implies{\rm }$ 5225 = 95x/100

$\implies{\rm }$ 5225 x 100 = 95x

$\implies{\rm }$ 522500 = 95x

$\implies{\rm }$ 522500/95 = x

$\implies{\rm }$ Rs 5500

Hence, The Marked Price of almirah is Rs 5500.
