उत्तर
To gain 25% after allowing a discount of 10%, the shopkeeper must mark the price of the article which costs him Rs 360 as Rs 500.
Explanation:
Let the marked price of the article be Rs. x.
Cost price of the article = Rs. 360
According to the question,
`x - x xx 10/100 - (25 xx 360)/100 = 360`
⇒ `x - x/10 - 90 = 360` ...`[(∵ "Discount is always calculated on marked price and"), ("profit is always calculated on cost price")]`
⇒ `(9x)/10 - 90 = 360`
⇒ `(9x)/10 = 360 + 90`
⇒ `x = (450 xx 10)/9`
⇒ `(9x)/10 = 450`
⇒ x = Rs 500
So, the marked price is Rs 500.
Hence, Rs 500

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.
