Question

If Cp of an article is Rs 1,080 and loss is Rs 120, then its SP is ___________ (b) If MP of an article is Rs 500 and discount is 20 per cent then its SP is ________ (c) If SP of an article is Rs 810 and discount is 10 Per cent then its MP is __________. Solve It...

Answer 1

Given CP = 1080, Loss = 120

Let selling price = x

We know that Loss = Cost price - Selling price

                        120 = 1080 - x

                        120 + x = 1080

                        x = 1080 - 120

                        x = 960.


Therefore the selling price = 960.


(2) Given marked price of article = 500, Discount = 20%.

 We know that Discount = Discount/MP * 100

                                         = 20/100 * 500

                                         = 100.

Now,

Selling price = Marked price - Discount

                      = 500 - 100

                      = 400.


Therefore the selling price = 400.


(3) Given Selling price = 810, Discount = 10%

Let marked price = x.

We know that Selling price = M.P - Discount%/100 * MP

                         810 = x - 10/100 * x

                         810 = 100x - 10x/100

                         810 = 90x/100

                         81000 = 90x

                         x = 900.


Therefore the marked price = 900.


Hope this helps!
