A shopkeeper offers 10% off-season discount to the customers and still makes a profit of 26%. What is the cost price for the shopkeeper on a pair of shoes marked at Rs 1120?
उत्तर
\[\text { Given }, \]
\[\text { MP of the pair of shoes = Rs } . 1120\]
\[\text { Discount = 10 % } \]
\[\text { So, SP = MP }\left( \frac{100 - \text { Discount % }}{100} \right)\]
\[ = 1120 \times \frac{90}{100}\]
\[ = Rs . 1008\]
\[\text { Now, }\]
\[\text { Profit = 26 % } \]
