Question

hat price should Sushila mark on a Saree which costs her 2,200 so as to gain
% after allowing a discount of 12% ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

C.P of a saree =Rs.2200

Gain =26% of Rs.2200=10026×2200=Rs.572

∴ S.P of a saree =Rs.(2200+572)=Rs.2772

Let M.P of be Rs.100.

Then, discount =12% of Rs.100 =Rs.12

∴S.P=Rs.100−Rs.12=Rs.88

Now, if S.P=Rs.88,M.P=Rs.100,

∴ If S.P=Rs.2772, then

M.P =Rs.88100×2772=Rs.3150

Thus, marked price of saree =Rs.3150
