A tradesman sells his goods at 10% discount. What Price should he mark on an article that costs him Rs. 2400, to gain 12.5%?
उत्तर
C.P. = Rs.2400, discount = 10%, profit % = 12.5%
profit % = `"profit"/"C.P." xx 100`
⇒ 12.5 = `"profit"/(2400) xx 100`
⇒ profit = `(12.5 xx 2400)/(100)`
⇒ profit = Rs.300
S.P. = Rs.2400 + Rs.300
= Rs.2700
S.P. = `(1 - "d"/100)` of M.P.
⇒ 2700 = `(1 - 10/100) xx M.P.`
⇒ 2700 = `(9)/(100) xx M.P.`
⇒ `(2700 xx 100)/(90)` = M.P.
⇒ M.P. = Rs.3000
Hence, the price he should mark the article at is Rs.3000.

After offering discount of 10% on marked price, a customer gets total discount of 17 rupees. To find the cost price for the customer, fill in the following boxes with appropriate numbers and complete the activity.
Suppose, marked price of the item = 100 rupees
Therefore, for customer that item costs `square` - `square` = 90 rupees
Hence, when the discount is `square` then the selling price is `square` rupees.
Suppose when the discount is `square` rupees, the selling price is x rupees.
∴ `x/square=square/square`
∴ x = `(squarexxsquare)/square`
∴ x = `square`
∴ the customer will get the item for 153 rupees.
