Question

If after giving a discount of 18%, a book is sold for Rs 1599, then what will be the marked price (in Rs
of the book?​

Answer 1

Answer:

₹ 1950 is the market price

Step-by-step explanation:

let's take the 18% price is X

so,

1599=82

X = 18

do the cross multiplication

1599×18=X×82

28782=X×82

28782/82= X

351=X

therefore X is 351 that is 18% of price is is 351

so 1599+351= 1950

therefore ₹1950 is the total market price of this book is ₹1950

And 18% of 1950 is 1950×18/100= 351

and 351 - 1950 = 1599
