Question

the maked the price of a watch is rupees 40 but is the selling price if a discount of 15% is allowed?​

Answer 1

Answer:

12:25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let MP of the article be Rs 100

Hence, SP of the article = 100 × 60/100 = 60

And, CP of the article = 60 × 100/125 = 48

Required ratio of CP to MP = 48 : 100 = 12 : 25

Short Trick:

Ratio of CP to MP = (100 - Discount %) : (100 + Profit%) = 60 : 125 = 12 : 25
