Question
A jacket is sold after giving two consecutive discounts of
25% and 15%. If its final selling price is Rs. 3,060, find the original marked price of the jacket.Solution
ATQ,
Let the marked price of jacket be Rs. 100m
Selling price of jacket = 0.75 × 0.85 × 100m = Rs. 63.75m
So, 63.75m = 3,060
Or, m = 48
Therefore, marked price of jacket = 48 × 100 = Rs.4,800
