Answer 1

Answer:

The marked price of the watch was ₹300

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, S.P. = 270

Discount(D) = 10%

M.P. = 100 × S.P. / 100 - D

= 100 × 270 / 100 - 10

= 27000 / 90 = 300 {answer}.

Answer 2

Answer:

Discount percent (D%) = 10%

Profit percent(P%) = 10%

Marked price (M.P.) = Rs330

So, Discount amount = 10% of M.P. = 10% * 330 = Rs 33.

Selling price (S.P.) = M.P. - discount amount = 330-33 = Rs 297

Therefore, Cost  price of the watch (C.P.) = (S.P. × 100)/(100+profit%)

                                                                     = (297×100)÷(100+10) = Rs 270

So, the cost price of the watch is Rs 270.

Alternative method:

Let cost price (C.P.) be Rs x.

Then,

Selling price = C.P.+10% of C.P.

or, 297 = x + 0.1 × x

or, 297 = 1.1x

or, x = Rs 270

We have supposed C.P. as 'x'. Here, obtained value of x = Rs 270. So, C.P. i.e. cost price of the watch is Rs 270
