    Question

    A seller marked an item above its cost price and allows

    a discount of 10% on it. On the discounted price, the seller charges a packaging price which is equal to 3% of the discounted price. If the seller sold the packaged item for Rs. 3,090, then find the marked price (in Rs.) of the item.
    A Rs.2,180 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs.4,200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs.3,143 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.3,336 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Let the marked price be Rs. '12x'. Discounted price of the item = 0.9 × 12x = Rs. '10.8x' Net selling price = 1.03 × 10.8x = Rs. '11.124x' So, '11.124x' = 3090 Or, 'x' = (3090 / 11.124) = 278 Therefore, the marked price = '12x' = 12 × 278 = Rs. 3,336
