$\sf{\bold{\green{\underline{\underline{Solution}}}}}$

$\sf{\red{\boxed{\bold{Selling\: Price = Marked \: price - Discount}}}}$

: $\sf\implies\:{\bold{ 5225 = Marked\:Price - \dfrac{ 5 }{100}\times Marked\: price }}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀

: $\sf\implies\:{\bold{ Marked\: price ( 1 - \dfrac{5}{100} ) = 5225 }}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀

: $\sf\implies\:{\bold{ Marked\: price ( \dfrac{100 - 5}{100} ) = 5225 }}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀

: $\sf\implies\:{\bold{ Marked\: price ( \dfrac{95}{100} ) = 5225 }}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀

: $\sf\implies\:{\bold{ Marked\: price =\dfrac{ 5225\times 100}{95}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀

: $\sf\implies\:{\bold{ Marked\: price = 55\times 100 }}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀

: $\sf\implies\:{\bold{ Marked\: price = Rs. 5500 }}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\sf{\pink{\boxed{\bold{\dag Marked\: Price = Rs. 5500}}}}$
