Question -

Arun bought a pair of skates at a sale where the discount is given was 20%. If the amount he pays is тВ╣ 1,600, find the marked price.



Answer -

Let the MP of the skates be тВ╣ 100
Discount = тВ╣ 20% of 100 = тВ╣ 20
Sale price = тВ╣ 100 тАУ тВ╣ 20 = тВ╣ 80
If SP is тВ╣ 80 then MP = тВ╣ 100
If SP is тВ╣ 1 then MP = тВ╣ 100/80
If SP is тВ╣ 1,600 then MP = тВ╣ 100/80 ├Ч 1600 = тВ╣ 2,000
Thus the MP = тВ╣ 2000.
