Question
The marked price of a dishwasher is set 25% higher than
its cost price. The seller then applies two successive discounts, first 15% and then an additional 20%. If this results in a loss of Rs. 2400, what is the final selling price of the dishwasher?Solution
ATQ, Let the cost price = Rs. x Marked price = Rs. 1.25x According to the question, x – 1.25x × 85% × 80% = 2400 x – 0.85x = 2400 0.15x = 2400 x = 16000 Required selling price = Rs. 16000 – 2400 = Rs.13600
