Question

Dinesh border t-shirt for ₹464 which include in a discount of 15% on the Marked price and the sales tax of 10% on the reduced price find the Marked price of the article​

Answer 1

Answer:

The market price of the article = Rs 496.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost Price  ( CP ) = Rs 464

Let the market price = Rs x

Discount % = 15 %

∴ Discount = 15 % of Rs x

                  =Rs 0.15x

Selling price = Rs x - Rs 0.15x

                     = Rs 0.85x

Sales Tax = 10 % of Rs 0.85x

                 = Rs 0.085x

∴ Amount paid for the Particle = Rs 0.85x + Rs 0.085x

                                                   = Rs 0.935x

Now,

When Amount paid is Rs 0.935x , MP = Rs x

When Amount paid is Rs 1 , MP = $\frac{x}{0.935x}$

∴ When Amount paid is Rs 464 , MP = $\frac{x}{0.935x}*464$

                                                            = $\frac{1}{0.935}*464$

                                                            = Rs 496.25

Therefore,

The market price of the article = Rs 496.25
