      C 1,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 1,320 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the marked price be β‚Ήx. Selling price with 65% discount = x Γ— 0.35
      Selling price with successive 30% and 40% discounts = x Γ— 0.70 Γ— 0.60 = x Γ— 0.42 Difference = x Γ— 0.42 βˆ’ x Γ— 0.35 = 105
      x(0.42 βˆ’ 0.35) = 105
      x Γ— 0.07 = 105
      x = 105 / 0.07 = β‚Ή1500
