      Question

      Rahul bought a gadget and increased its price by 60% above

      the cost price. He sold it after offering a discount of 20% for Rs. 2400. What would be the selling price if a discount of 10% was offered instead?
      A Rs.2593 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.2700 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.2056 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.2244 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

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

      Marked price = 1.60 Γ— 100x = Rs. 160x

      Selling price after discount = 0.80 Γ— 160x = Rs. 128x

      According to the question:

      128x = 2400

      So, x = 18.75

      Desired selling price = 0.90 Γ— 1.60 Γ— 1875 = Rs. 2700
