Answer:

1095selling price of the sewing machine

Answer 2

Answer:

Rs.1265

Step-by-step explanation:

the MRP is 2300 and it is sold at a discount of 45%.

Method 1:Ratio method

45% means 9/20

9 signifies the discount offered

20 in the ratio signifies the MRP

that mean 20---->2300

1------>2300/20

1------->115

Now we got the value for One unit

And we know that that the selling price is nothing but the MRP-discount offered

So it translates to 20-9 in ratio i.e is 11ratio

so the selling price is 11*115=1265

Method 2:Basic

the MRP is 2300 and it is sold at a discount of 45%.

2300*45%=1035

1035 is the discount price

So to get the selling price we subtract 1035 from the MRP i.e. 2300-1035=1265
