At what price did the shopkeeper buy an article, if he gets 8% profit even after
giving 10% discount on the printed price of 15,000?
the answer is 12500 but how pls solve my question ​

Answer 1

MRP = ₹ 15,000

Discount = 10%

SP = 15000 - ( 10 / 100 × 15000 )

SP = ₹ 13,500

Profit = 8%

Let ,

CP be "x"

8x / 100 + x = 13,500

108x / 100 = 13,500

x = ( 13,500 × 100 ) / 108

x = 13,50,000 / 108

x = 12,500

:. The shopkeeper bought the article at ₹ 12,500
