cost price is rupees 150 and marked price is 200 and discount on price is 10% what will be the selling price and percentage of profit and loss on marked price​

Answer 1

Given data : Cost price is Rs 150 and marked price is Rs 200 and discount on price is 10 %.

To find : The selling price and percentage of profit and loss on marked price.

Solution : Firstly we have to find discount,

Here, we know,

• Cost price = Rs 150
• Marked price = Rs 200
• Discount % = 10 %

Now,

⟹ Discount % = {Discount/Marked price} * 100

⟹ 10 = {Discount/200} * 100

⟹ 10/100 = Discount/200

⟹ 0.1 = Discount/200

⟹ Discount = 0.1 * 200

⟹ Discount = Rs 20

Now, by formula of discount,

⟹ Discount = Marked price - Selling price

⟹ 20 = 200 - Selling price

⟹ Selling price = 200 - 20

⟹ Selling price = Rs 180

Here, according to cost price and selling price it profit.

⟹ Profit = Selling price - Cost price

⟹ Profit = 180 - 150

⟹ Profit = Rs 30

Now,

⟹ Profit % = {Profit/Cost price} * 100

⟹ Profit % = {30/150} * 100

⟹ Profit % = {1/5} * 100

⟹ Profit % = 0.2 * 100

⟹ Profit % = 20 %

Answer : Hence, the selling price is Rs 180 and the profit % is 20 %.

⟹ selling price = Marked price * {(100 - Discount %)/100}

⟹ selling price = 200 * {(100 - 10)/100}

⟹ selling price = 200 * {90/100}

⟹ selling price = 200 * 0.9

⟹ selling price = Rs 180
