(b) Rs 1344
(c) Rs 1212
(d) Rs 1188

Answer 1

To find the selling price of item b, we need to determine the marked price of item a and the selling price of item a with a discount. Using the given information and equations, we can calculate the selling price of item b.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the selling price of item b, we need to first determine the marked price of item a. Let's assume the marked price of item a is 'x'.

According to the given information, the marked price of item b is rs 100 more than the marked price of item a. Therefore, the marked price of item b would be 'x + 100'.

Now, we know that the selling price of item a is rs 180 and there is a discount of 10% on it. So the discounted price of item a is (180 - (10% of 180)).

We can calculate the selling price of item a by substituting the values: selling price of a = 180 - (0.1 * 180) = rs 162.

Similarly, the selling price of item b would be (x + 100) - (0.1 * (x + 100)).

To calculate the selling price, substitute x = 162 in the equation and solve it.
