उत्तर

Let the decided price of the item be ₹ 100.

∴ Marked price of the item = ₹ 100 + 25% of ₹ 100

= ₹ 100 + ₹ 25

= ₹ 125

Discount on the item = 20% of ₹ 125

= \[\frac{20}{100} \times 125\]

= ₹ 25

∴ Selling price of the item = Marked price of the item − Discount on the item

= ₹ 125 − ₹ 25

= ₹ 100

Since the decided price of the item is same as the selling price of the item so the shopkeeper neither makes any profit nor any loss on selling the item.

Thus, the shopkeeper gets 0% on the decided price.

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.
