Question

Arun bought a pair of skate at a sale where the discount given was 20% if the amount he pays is ₹1,600 find the marked price?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Rs. 2000

Step-by-step explanation:

d% = d/MP ×100

d = MP - SP

d% = {(MP-SP)/MP} ×100

20 = {(MP-1600)/MP} ×100

20MP = (MP - 1600) ×100

20MP = 100MP - 160,000

160,000 = 80 MP

Rs. 2000 = MP

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge{\sf\colorbox{Red}{₹2000}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Discount Percent = 20%

Discount Price = ₹1,600

To find,

Marked Price

Procedure,

Let the Marked Price be x

$\frac{100 \%- 20\%}{100} x = 1600$

$\frac{80}{100} x = 1600$

$80x = 1600 \times 100$

$80x = 160000$

$x = \frac{160000}{80}$

$x = 2000$

Therefore, the Marked Price of the pair of skates is ₹2000.
