Question
The marked price of a table is Rs. 625 and its sale price is Rs. 500. What is the ratio of the sale price to the marked price?
Solution
Given, marked price of a table = ₹ 625
Sale price of a table = ₹ 500
Ratio of sale price to marked price = `(₹ 500)/(₹ 625) = 500/625`
= `20/25` .....[On dividing numerator and denominator by 25]
= `4/5` .....[On Dividing numerator and denominator by 5]
∴ Required ratio = 4:5
