Q6 of 13 Page 55

A shopkeeper gives 11% discount on a television set, hence the cost price of it is Rs. 22,250. Then find the marked price of the television set.

Given:


Discount = 11%


Cost Price = Rs 22250


Now, let us suppose the marked price is Rs x.


Given discount is 11% on the marked price.


Discount = 0.11x


We also know the cost price is Rs 22250 after a discount of 11% on the marked price.


x – 0.11x = 22250


0.89x = 22250



Hence, the marked price is Rs 25000.
