Answer» Correct Answer - Option 5 : 192 Let the marked price be Rs. x So if he has sold at the price, commission to the app = 20/100 × x = 0.2x Share of the restaurant = x – 0.2x ⇒ 0.8x The app offers 10% discount Cost of discount = 10/100 × x = 0.1x 50% to borne by restaurant 0.05x to be borne by restaurant Net pay to restaurant = 0.8x – 0.05x ⇒ 0.75x Selling price = Cost price × (100 + profit%)/100 ⇒ 120 × (100 + 20) /100 ⇒ 144 0.75x = 144 x = 144/0.75 = Rs. 192 ∴ Required answer is Rs. 192. |
