      Question

      Anaya purchased a dress for Rs. 3000 and paid extra for

      tailoring. She marked it up by 25%, gave a Rs. 360 discount, and earned a 15% profit. Find the tailoring cost.
      A Rs 600 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs 480 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs 400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs 540 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let tailoring cost = Rs. x
      Effective cost = 3000 + x
      Marked Price = 1.25(3000 + x)
      Selling Price = Marked โ€“ 360 = 1.15(3000 + x)
      1.25(3000 + x) โ€“ 1.15(3000 + x) = 360
      0.10(3000 + x) = 360
      3000 + x = 3600
      x = Rs. 600
