Question

shyam bought a watch on the occasion of diwali for Rs 728 at the discount of 9%. Find the marked price of the watch​

Answer 1

Think so the answer is 720

Answer 2

Shyam bought the watch in amount of 728 Rs.

and discount = 9%

Let marked price of watch is X Rs.

now, marked price - discount = 728 Rs.

or, X - 9% of X = 728

or, X - 9X/100 = 728

or, 91X/100 = 728

or, X = 728 × 100/91

or, X = 800

hence, marked price of the watch is 800 Rs.
