Question

Rehana got $24$% discount on her frock. She paid Rs.$380$ after discount. Find the marked price of the frock.

Answer 1

Given: Discount $=24$%, Selling Price $=380$

$S.P=M.P–Discount$

$P=M.P.-24$% of $MP$

$=M.P.(1-\frac{224}{100})M.P.=S.P.\left(\frac{100}{76}\right)=380\times \frac{100}{76}=500$

$\therefore$ marked price is $Rs.500$
