Find the discount percentage when marked price is Rs 1250 and S.P is Rs 1125
Answers
Answer:
62/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
M.P. = 1300
Discount = 10%
By using the formulas
SP = Marked price (MP) – Discount
Discount = (MP × Discount %)/100
Discount% = (Discount)/M.P. × 100
By using,
Discount = (MP × Discount %)/100
= (1300×10)/100
= Rs 130
SP = MP – Discount
= (1300 – 130) = Rs 1170
(ii) Given,
M.P. = 500
Discount = 15%
By using,
Discount = (MP × Discount %)/100
= (500×15)/100
= Rs 75
SP = MP – Discount
= (500 – 75) = Rs 425
2. Find the M.P. if
(i) S.P. = Rs 1222 and Discount = 6%
(ii) S.P. = Rs 495 and Discount = 1%
Solution:
(i) Given,
SP = Rs 1222
Discount = 6%
By using the formula
MP = (100 × SP) / (100 – Discount %)
= (100 × 1222) / (100 – 6)
= 122200/94
= Rs 1300
(ii) Given,
SP = Rs 495
Discount = 1%
By using the formula
MP = (100 × SP) / (100 – Discount %)
= (100 × 495) / (100 – 1)
= 49500/99
= Rs 500
3. Find the discount in percent when
(i) M.P. = Rs. 900 and S.P. = Rs. 873
(ii) M.P. = Rs. 500 and S.P. = Rs. 425
Solution:
(i) Given,
MP = Rs 900
SP = Rs 873
By using the formula
Discount% = (MP – SP)/MP × 100
= (900-873)/900 × 100
= 27/900 × 100
= 3%
(ii) Given,
MP = Rs 500
SP = Rs 425
By using the formula
Discount% = (MP – SP)/MP × 100
= (500-425)/500 × 100
= 75/500 × 100
= 15%
