उत्तर

A jacket was sold for Rs 1,120 after allowing a discount of 20%. The marked price of the jacket is Rs 1400.

Explanation:

Let the marked price of the jacket be Rs. x.

Discount % on marked price = 20%

Selling price of jacket = Rs 1120

Then, `1120 = x - x xx 20/100`

⇒ `1120 = x - x/5`

⇒ `1120 = (4x)/5`

⇒ `x = (1120 xx 5)/4`

= 280 × 5

= Rs 1400

So, marked price of the jacket is Rs 1400.

Hence, Rs 1400
