Question

Arun bought a pair of skates at a sale where the discount given was 20%. If
amount he pays is * 1.600, find the marked price.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let marked price be x/-

$discount \:\% = \frac{discount}{marked \: price} \times 100$

$20 = \frac{discount}{x} \times 100$

$discount = \frac{x}{5}$

Discount=Marked price-sale price

$\frac{x}{5} = x - 1600$

$\frac{4x}{5} = 1600$

x=2000/-
