उत्तर
Let the cost price of the goods = Rs.100
Profit
= 21% of Rs.100
= Rs.21
∴ S.P.
= C.P. + Profit
= Rs. (100 + 21)
= Rs.121
Discount = 12%
`"S.P."/"M.P." = 1 - "D"/(100)`
⇒ `(121)/"M.P." = 1 - (12)/(100)`
⇒ `(121)/"M.P." = (88)/(100)`
⇒ "M.P." = `(100 xx 121)/(100)`
= Rs.137.5
Profit
= M.P. - C.P.
= Rs.(137.5 - 100)
= Rs.37.5
Profit % = 37.5%
He would have made a profit of 37.5% by selling at the market price.

The marked price of a mixer is 2300 rupees. A customer purchased it for Rs. 1955. Find percentage of discount offered to the customer.
After offering discount of 10% on marked price, a customer gets total discount of 17 rupees. To find the cost price for the customer, fill in the following boxes with appropriate numbers and complete the activity.
Suppose, marked price of the item = 100 rupees
Therefore, for customer that item costs `square` - `square` = 90 rupees
Hence, when the discount is `square` then the selling price is `square` rupees.
Suppose when the discount is `square` rupees, the selling price is x rupees.
∴ `x/square=square/square`
∴ x = `(squarexxsquare)/square`
∴ x = `square`
∴ the customer will get the item for 153 rupees.
