Question

during Christmas crib is sold for rs 2990 at the discount of 35 percent find marked price on it​

Answer 1

Answer:

The marked price of the crib was ₹4,600.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

• Selling price of the crib (S.P) = ₹2,990

• Discount percent on the crib = 35%

To find:

• Marked price of the crip (M.P)

Method to find:

Discount % = (M.P - S.P)/M.P * 100

⇒ 35 % = (M.P - 2990)/M.P * 100

⇒ 35/100 = (M.P - 2990)/M.P

⇒ (35 * M.P)/100 = M.P - 2990

⇒ (35 * M.P) = 100(M/P - 2990)

⇒ (35 * M.P) = (100 * M.P) - 299000

⇒ 65 * M.P = 299000

⇒ M.P = ₹4,600

Verifying our answer:

M.P - (Discount% of M.P) = S.P

⇒ 4,600 - (35/100 * 4,600) = 2,990

⇒ 4,600 - 1,610 = 2,990

⇒ ₹2,990 = ₹2,990

L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence, the answer derived is correct.

Hope it helps!
