Question
Marked price of an article is Rs. 2,500 which is Rs. 900
more than its cost price. If it is sold after giving a discount of ‘d%’ such that there is a profit of 25%, then find the value of ‘d’.Solution
ATQ,
Marked price of the article = Rs. 2,500
So, cost price of the article = 2500 – 900 = Rs. 1,600
Selling price of the article = 1.25 × 1600 = Rs. 2,000
So, d = {(2500 – 2000)/2500} × 100 = 20%
Therefore, value of ‘d’ = 20
