Answer 2

Hi there!
Here's the answer.

Marked price = 5600 ₹
To this rate, price is increased.
%Increase = 10%

=> Increased price= Marked price +change in price.

Change in price= 10% of 5600
=(10/100)×5600
=560 ₹

•°• Increased price= 5600 + 56= 6160 ₹
To this rate, Discount is availed.

%Discount= 8%
Discount price= 8% of 6160
= (8/100)×6160
= 492.8₹

This discount price removed from increased price gives the final selling price of the item

•°•Required Final S.P = 6160-492.8
= 5667.2 ₹

:)
hope it helps
