Question

CORRECT ANSWER WILL BE MARKED AS BRAINLY
A trader marks his goods in such a way that after allowing a discount of 10% he still gains 12.5%. If an article costs him 1440, what is its marked price?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Cost Price of the article= Rs. 1440

So Sale Price of the article= Rs1440 x 112.5 = Rs. 1620

So now

S.P= Marked Price x (100-D)/100

S.P =M.P x 0.90.

So Marked Price = Rs 1620/0.9

Marked Price = Rs 1800.00
