Answers
Marked price:
The Marked price (MP) a listed price of an article is the price printed on the article itself or on the packaging or a slip attached to the article.
Discount:
When a dealer sells an article for a price that is lower than the MP , the difference between the Marked price (MP) and selling price( SP) is called discount.
==========================================================
Solution:
Given: MP (marked price) of 1 pair of jeans=₹1450
MP of 1 shirt= ₹850
Total Marked Price (MP) of a pair of jeans and two shirts
= 1450 + 2 x 850 = 3150
Total MP= ₹3150
Discount = Marked Price (MP) x % Discount
=3150 × (10/100)= ₹315
New Price After Discount = 3150 - 315 =₹ 2835
