Question

The market price of an article is 40% more than the cost price. There is a profit of x% after giving the discount of
15%. If the cost price of an article is Rs 1160 and its market price is 30% higher, then how many Rs will be the
benefit after giving the discount of x%?​

Answer 1

Answer:

61.48

Step-by-step explanation:

let CP=100

    MRP=140 (40%more than CP)

    Discount =15%

    Actual price after  discount(100-15)=85%

x% profit after giving discount

85%MRP=SP

85%of 140=SP

SP=119

Profit=SP-CP

       =119-100

       x=19%

if CP=1160

  MRP=130% of 1160  (30% higher than CP)

          =1508

Discount x=19%

Actual price after discount (100-19)=81%

81%of MRP=SP

81%of 1508=SP

SP=1221.48

benefit=1221.48-1160

           =61.48
