Question 56

A discount of 30% on the marked price of a shirt enables a man to purchase a tie also, which costs him ₹ 210. How much did the man pay for the shirt?

Solution

Let marked price of shirt = Rs. $$100x$$

Now, discounted price of shirt is equal to the value of tie,

=> $$30x=210$$

=> $$x=\frac{210}{30}=7$$

Thus, amount paid for shirt = $$(100\times7)-210=Rs.$$ $$490$$

=> Ans - (B)
