Answer 1

The marked price of television set is 6573.10 Rs.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given in question that two successive discount of 10% and 5% are offered on a television set.

Selling price is rupees 5620.

We have to find the marked price.

Let the market price be x.

We know that,

Selling Price = $Market\ price\times\frac{100\ -\ discount\%}{100}$

Cost of television set after 1st discount = $x\times\frac{90}{100}$

Cost of television set after 2nd discount = $x\times\frac{90}{100}\times\frac{95}{100}$

$5620 = x\times\frac{90}{100}\times\frac{95}{100}$

$5620 = x\times\frac{9}{10}\times\frac{19}{20}$

$5620\times\frac{10}{9}\times\frac{20}{19} = x$

∴ x = 6573.10 Rs.

Therefore, the marked price of television set is 6573.10 Rs.
