Question
The selling price, cost price and marked price of a bag are
in the ratio 7:5:10. If the profit is Rs. 800, calculate the discount allowed on the marked price.Solution
ATQ,
Let the selling price, cost price and marked price be Rs. 7x, Rs. 5x and Rs. 10x respectively
According to the question,
Profit earned = 7x – 5x = Rs. 2x
Therefore, 2x = 800
Or, x = 400
Therefore, discount offered = 10x – 7x = 3x = 3 × 400 = Rs. 1200
