Answer 2

Answer:

2298.91.

Explanation:

SP = ₹2115

Discount = 8%.

By SP formula,

SP = (1- d/100) × MP

=> 2115 = (1- 8/100) × MP

=> 2115 = (1- 2/25) × MP

=> 2115 = (23/25) × MP

=> MP = (25/23) × 2115

=> MP = 2298.91 (approx).

Therefore, marked price is ₹2,298.91.

Verification

By SP formula,

SP = (1- d/100) × MP

Put values of MP and discount.

=> SP = (1- 8/100) × 2298.91

=> SP = (1- 2/25) × 2298.91

=> SP = (23/25) × 2298.91

=> SP = 2115. ( Rounded off value).

As we got SP from MP, so our answer is correct.

Hence, verified!
