Arun bought a pair of skates at a sale where the discount given was 20%. If the amount he pays is Rs 1,600, find the marked price.

Answer 1

ans is 2000.
1x - 20% of x = 1600
1x - 0.2x = 1600
0.8x = 1600
x = 2000.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

Discount Percentage = 20%

Sale Price = 1600

To Find :-

The marked price

Solution :-

Let the marked Price = x

⇒ x - (20x/100) = 1600

⇒ 80x = 160000

⇒ x = 160000/80

⇒ x = 2000

Hence, the marked price is Rs 2000.
