    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Given, Discount = Rs. 1800, Cost price = Rs. 2000

    Also, profit earned = 1800 + 700 = Rs. 2500

    Selling price = 2000 + 2500 = Rs. 4500

    So, Marked price = 4500 + 1800 = Rs. 6300

    So, required percentage = {(6300 - 2000) /2000} ├Ч 100 = 215%
