Question

At what price should the Karan mark a sewing machine that costs him Rs. 1200/- so that even after offering a 20% discount, he makes 25% profit?

Answer 1

Answer:

1875

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of a sewing machine = Rs. 1200

By giving 20% discount on the marked price of a sewing machine, the cost price =

100/80 * 1200 = Rs. 1500

By making a profit of 25% on the cost price of a sewing machine, the marked price of the sewing machine is

125/100 × 1500 = 125 × 15 = Rs. 1,875/
