Question

the cost of an almirah is Rs 2000. A gain of 10% should be made after a discount of 20%. Find the marked price

Answer 1

discount = 20% OF 2000 =Rs 400
the c.p with the discount price =2000 - 400 = 1600
s.p =1600 + 10 % of 1600 = 1600 + 160 = Rs 1760
hence the market price is Rs1760

Answer 2

Answer:  Marked price of an almirah is Rs. 2750.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost of an almirah = Rs. 2000

Gain % = 10%

Discount % = 20%

We need to find the marked price:

As we know the relation between marked and cost price with profit and discount.

$Marked=Cost\times \frac{100+Proft}{100-Discount}\\\\Marked=2000\times \frac{100+10}{100-20}\\\\Marked=2000\times \frac{110}{80}\\\\Marked=Rs.2750$

Hence, Marked price of an almirah is Rs. 2750.
