Question

a shopkeeper purchased a TV at ₹15,000 and gives a discount of 20% on its marked prize and still got a profit of 8% . find the marked prize of the TV . ​

Answer 1

`\huge\sf\underline{Answer}`

`\sf\longrightarrow selling \: prize \: = (100 + profit\%)/(100) * cp`

`\sf\longrightarrow (108)/(100) * 15000 = 16200`

Let the marked prize of the TV be x .

`\sf\longrightarrow discount = 20\% \: of \: x \: = (20)/(100)x = (x)/(5)`

We have SP = MP - Discount

`\sf\longrightarrow 16200 \: = \: x - (x)/(5)`

`\sf\longrightarrow 16200 \: = (4x)/(5)`

`\sf\longrightarrow x \: = \: 20250`

Hence , The marked prize of the TV is ₹20,250 .
