Question

Jhanvi sells sarees. She allows 5% discount on the marked price and still gains 10%. Find the marked price of a saree which costs her ₹950. plz give full explanation.
​

Answer 1

Let the mark price be x

then

discount given=5%

means 100%-5%=95%

saree cost=950

therefore,

1%=950÷95

1%=10

and according to question "she still gains 10 %"

so 95 was the discounted % and to know the selling percent,we will add discounted%+discount%+profit%

95%+5%+10%

95%+15%

110%

therefore

1%×110%

10×110

1100

the mark price is 1100,,,,pls mark as brilliant
