      Sanya purchased a microwave oven and increased its price by

      55% above the cost price. She sold it after offering a 25% discount for Rs. 1500. What would be the selling price if she gave a discount of only 10%?
      A Rs.1042.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.1200.2 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.1056.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.1795.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let, cost price of the microwave oven be Rs. 100x

      Marked price = 1.55 ├Ч 100x = Rs. 155x

      Selling price after discount = 0.75 ├Ч 155x = Rs. 116.25x

      According to the question:

      116.25x = 1500

      So, x = 12.9

      Desired selling price = 0.90 ├Ч 1.55 ├Ч 1290 = Rs. 1795.5
