Question

What is the marked price of a hat which is bought for ₹ 210 at 16% discount?

Options

  • ₹ 243

  • ₹ 176

  • ₹ 230

  • ₹ 250

MCQ

Solution

₹ 250

Explanation

Hint:

Let marked price be M.P

Discounted price = ₹ 210

Rate of discount = 16%

As per formula:

Discounted price = `"M.P" xx (((100 - "d"%))/100)`

= `((100 - 16))/100`

M.P = `(210 xx 100)/84`

= 250
