Question

If a discount of $20\%$ on the marked price of a jeans saves a man $150$, then how much did he pay for the jeans?

• A. $810$
• B. $730$
• C. $680$
• D. $600$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $600$

Let the marked price of the jeans be $x$
According to the question

$x\times \frac{20}{100}=150$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{150\times 100}{20}=750$

$\therefore$ Price paid $=(750-150)=600$
