Question 177
After giving a discount of 15% an article is sold at Rs. 2550, what is its marked price ?
Solution
Let marked price = $$100x$$
Discount given = 15%
=> Discount amount = $$\frac{15}{100} * 100x = 15x$$
=> S.P. $$100x - 15x$$ = 2550
=> $$x$$ = $$\frac{2550}{85}$$ = 30
Marked Price = 100 * 30 = Rs 3,000
