Question

find the M.P of a T.V.set when it is purchased R.S 13950 at the discount of 10%​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling Price = 14,400

Let the M.P. be 100.

First discount =10% =

100

10

×100= 10

S.P. after the first discount =100−10= 90

Second discount =20% =

100

20

×90= 18

Selling Price after the second discount =90−18= 72

If S.P. is 72, then M.P. is 100.

When S.P. is 14,400,

M.P. =

72

14400×100

= 20,000

M.P. = 20,000.
