Question

What price should a trader mark on the article that cost him rs 918 to gain 20% after allowing a discount of 15%

Answer 1

CP = Rs. 918
G% = 20%

SP = 100+G%/100×CP
SP = 100+20/100×918
SP = RS. 1101.6

NOW,
LET THE MP BE 'RS. X'
SP = RS. 1101.6
D% = 20%
D = 20% of x
D = x/5

SP = MP - D
1101.6 = x - x/5
1101.6 = 4x/5
1101.6 × 5 = 4x
5508 = 4x
5508 / 4 = x
x = rs. 1377

mp=rs. 1377

Answer 2

mp=1377
