Question 13

A discount of 45% on an article is equal to the discount of 65% on other article.What is the respective ratio of the marked price of both the articles?

Solution

Let marked price of first article = Rs. $$x$$ and second article = Rs. $$y$$

According to ques,

=> $$\frac{45}{100}\times x=\frac{65}{100}\times y$$

=> $$9x=13y$$

=> $$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{13}{9}$$

$$\therefore$$ Respective ratio of the marked price of both the articles = 13 : 9
