Question
The marked price of an article is Rs. 180 more than its
cost price. The article is sold at 69% discount such that the seller earns a profit of Rs. 25. Find the marked price of the article.Solution
Let the cost price of the article be Rs. ‘x’. Then, marked price of the article = Rs. ‘x + 180’ Selling price of the article = Rs. (x + 25) ATQ; 0.69 × (x + 180) = x + 25 Or, 0.69x + 124.2 – x = 25 Or, 0.31x = 99.2 So, x = 320 So, marked price of the article = 320 + 180 = Rs. 500
