Question 79

At 10% discount the selling price of an article is Rs 4500, what is the selling price (in Rs) if the discount is 27.5%?

Solution

$$\frac{100-10}{100} \times CP = 4500$$

$$\frac{90}{100} \times CP = 4500$$

$$CP = 5000$$

if 27.5% discount is allowed then,

$$SP = \frac{100-27.5}{100} \times 5000$$

$$SP = \frac{72.5}{100} \times 5000$$

$$SP = 3625$$

so the answer is option B.
