Question 71

An article is sold for ₹4777 after giving discount of 15%. What is the marked price of article?

Solution

Let marked price = Rs.100x
Discount = 15% of Rs.100x = Rs.15x
Selling price = Rs.100x - Rs.15x = Rs.85x
Given, Rs.85x = Rs.4777
=> x = $$\dfrac{4777}{85} = 56.2$$
Then, Marked price = Rs.100x = Rs.100$$\times$$56.2 = Rs.5620
