Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Equivalent Discount,

Equivalent Discount,=(A + B) - AB100

Equivalent Discount,=(A + B) - AB100= (10 + 5) - 10×5100

Equivalent Discount,=(A + B) - AB100= (10 + 5) - 10×5100= 14.5%

Equivalent Discount,=(A + B) - AB100= (10 + 5) - 10×5100= 14.5%Let MP = X

Equivalent Discount,=(A + B) - AB100= (10 + 5) - 10×5100= 14.5%Let MP = XNow,

Equivalent Discount,=(A + B) - AB100= (10 + 5) - 10×5100= 14.5%Let MP = XNow,X - 14.5% of X = 171(Selling Price)

Equivalent Discount,=(A + B) - AB100= (10 + 5) - 10×5100= 14.5%Let MP = XNow,X - 14.5% of X = 171(Selling Price)0.855X = 171

Equivalent Discount,=(A + B) - AB100= (10 + 5) - 10×5100= 14.5%Let MP = XNow,X - 14.5% of X = 171(Selling Price)0.855X = 171X = 200

Equivalent Discount,=(A + B) - AB100= (10 + 5) - 10×5100= 14.5%Let MP = XNow,X - 14.5% of X = 171(Selling Price)0.855X = 171X = 200Hence, MP = Rs. 200

Equivalent Discount,=(A + B) - AB100= (10 + 5) - 10×5100= 14.5%Let MP = XNow,X - 14.5% of X = 171(Selling Price)0.855X = 171X = 200Hence, MP = Rs. 200Going through options,

Equivalent Discount,=(A + B) - AB100= (10 + 5) - 10×5100= 14.5%Let MP = XNow,X - 14.5% of X = 171(Selling Price)0.855X = 171X = 200Hence, MP = Rs. 200Going through options,200(MP) == 10%(disc.) ⇒ 180 == 5%(disc.) ⇒ 171(CP)
