उत्तर

\[\text { Given }, \]

\[\text { SP of the saree = Rs . 720 }\]

\[\text { Discount on the saree = 20 % } \]

\[\text { We know, Discount % } = \frac{\text { Discount }}{MP} \times 100\]

\[\text { Or, Discount } = \frac{\text { Discount % } \times MP}{100}\]

\[\text { Let the MP of the saree be Rs } . x\]

\[\text { Therefore, Discount  }= \frac{20}{100}x = Rs . 0 . 02x\]

\[\text { Since S . P = MP - Discount }, \]

\[720 = x - 0 . 20x\]

\[720 = 0 . 80x\]

\[x = \frac{720}{0 . 80}\]

\[ = Rs . 900\]

\[\text { Thus, the MP of the saree is Rs } . 900 .\]
