Answer 2

Given :- Marked price of an article is Rs 700. It is sold at discount of 20% .

To Find :- Find its selling price  ?

Solution :-

Let us assume that, selling price is Rs. x

so,

→ MP = Rs.700

→ Discount = 20% = 20% of 700 = (20 * 700)/100 = 140 .

then,

→ SP = MP - Discount

→ x = 700 - 140

→ x = Rs.560 (Ans.)

Method 2) :- Direct formula :-

→ SP = {MP * (100 - Discount %)}/100

→ SP = {700 * (100 - 20)}/100

→ SP = (700 * 80)/100

→ SP = 7 * 80

→ SP = Rs.560 (Ans.)

Hence, required Selling price is Rs.560 .
