Question

find the selling price of an article marked Rs.120 and discount is 20%​

Answer 1

• Selling price is Rs.96 .

Step-by-step explanation:

To find:-

• Selling price of article.

Solution:-

Given that,

Article market Rs.120 and Discount is 20%

Market price = Rs.120

Discount percent = 20%

Discount = Market price - Selling price

• Discount is the price or amount reduced from the normal selling price of something.

• Market price is the original price or normal price of something.

• Selling price is the price by which something is selled.

So,

$\longrightarrow$ Discount = 120 - S.P

[Here, S.P is Selling price]

$\boxed{\bold{Discount \: percent = \cfrac{Discount}{M.P} \times 100}}$

[Here, M.P is Market price]

Put Discount, Discount percent and M.P in formula:

$\longrightarrow$ 20 = 120 - S.P/120 × 100

$\longrightarrow$ 20 ×120 = (120 - S.P) × 100

$\longrightarrow$ 2400 = (120 - S.P) × 100

$\longrightarrow$ 2400/100 = 120 - S.P

$\longrightarrow$ 24 = 120 - S.P

$\longrightarrow$ S.P + 24 = 120

$\longrightarrow$ S.P = 120 - 24

$\longrightarrow$ S.P = 96

Therefore,

Selling price is Rs.96 .

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge \bf \: solution$

$\small \tt \underline {firstly \: lets \: understand \: concept}$

• In this case the article marked price = ₹120 and discount percent is 20%.
• SP - SP is the selling price of any object.
• Discount - Discount is the concession of something.
• CP - CP is the cost price of anything.

$\rule{150}{6}$

For finding SP apply formula :-

$\bf \: discount \: \% \: = \frac{discount}{marked \: price} \times 100$

$\sf \implies\: 20 = \dfrac{20 - SP}{120} \times 100$

$\sf \implies \: 20 \times 120 = (120 - SP) \times 100$

$\sf \implies2400 = (120 - sp) \times 100$

$\sf \implies \: \dfrac{2400}{100} = 120 - sp$

$\sf \implies \: 24 = 120 - sp$

$\sf \implies \: 24 + sp = 120$

$\sf \implies \: 120 - 24 = sp$

$\sf \implies \: 96 = sp$
