Question 13

Mohan bought a trouser at 10% discount and sold it to Sohan at a loss of 10%. If Sohan paid Rs. 729 for the trouser to Mohan, then what was the undiscounted price of the trouser?

Solution

It is given that Mohan bought a trouser at 10% discount and sold it to Sohan at a loss of 10%
Now Sohan paid Rs 729
So S.P for Mohan = 729 
This is sold at 10% loss 
so cost price of Mohan = 729/0.9 =810
Now Mohan bought for 810 at 10% discount
so original price (1-0.1) =810
We get undiscounted  price = 900
