      Solution

      ATQ,
      Let the marked price of the product be Rs. x.

      Selling price of the product = 0.75 ├Ч x = Rs. 0.75x

      Cost price of the product = Rs. (0.75x тАУ 45)

      According to the question;

      1.25 ├Ч (0.75x тАУ 45) = 0.75x + 150

      Or, 0.1875x = 206.25

      Or, x = 1100
