Question

if an article is sold for Rs 450 after allowing a discount of 10./. find the list price on the article​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the original price be x.

Discount = 10% of x

= 0.1x

x - 0.1x = 450

0.9x = 450

x = 500

Hence, the list price of the article is Rs. 500.

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the list price be Rs x

10% of x is calculated as discount

The selling price is Rs 450

So, we can say:

$x - \frac{x}{10} = 450$

$\frac{9x}{10} = 450$

$x = \frac{4500}{9} = 500$

Hence, list price of article is Rs 500
