• A. Rs 5000
• B. Rs 4000
• C. Rs 12,500
• D. Rs 15,000

Answer 1

The correct option is B Rs 4000

Let the labeled price be Rs. x Then,
(80% of x)- (70% of x) = 500
10% of x =500
10%………..500
100%…………??= (500 x 100/10) =
5000= x (labeled price)
Therefor at which he bought a refrigerator is 80% of x = Rs. 4000.
