उत्तर
C.P. of the article = Rs.450
(i) The marked price of the article
`=(100+20)/100xx"Rs."450`
= Rs.`120/100xx450` = 12 × 45 = Rs.540
∴ Marked price of the article = Rs.540
(ii) Discount `=10/100xx"M.P."`
`=10/100xx"Rs."540`
= Rs.54
S.P. = M.P. − Discount
= Rs.540 − Rs.54
= Rs.486
(iii) S.P. = Rs.496.80
M.P. = Rs.540
Discount = M.P. − S.P.
= Rs.540 − Rs.496.80
= Rs.43.20
Discount% =`"Discount"/"M.P."xx100`
`=43.20/540xx100`
`=4320/540%`
= 8%
