      Question

      Rohit bought a sofa and marked its price 65% more than the

      cost price. After offering a 25% discount, he sold it for Rs. 2600. What would be the selling price if a 15% discount had been given?
      A Rs.2945.25 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.2400.22 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.2056.65 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.2244.50 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let, cost price of the sofa be Rs. 100x

      Marked price = 1.65 ร— 100x = Rs. 165x

      Selling price after discount = 0.75 ร— 165x = Rs. 123.75x

      According to the question:

      123.75x = 2600

      So, x = 21

      Desired selling price = 0.85 ร— 1.65 ร— 2100 = Rs. 2945.25
