The marked price of a book is RS 250and discount is 15 percent .then find amount to be paid​

Answer»

Answer:

MP is ALWAYS expressed as a PERCENTAGE of CP.

Discount is always applied on MP.

PROFIT is always expressed as a percentage of CP.

Coming to the problem :

MP = 250

Discount = 10% of MP = 25

SP = MP - Discount

= 250 - 25 = 225

Since he is making 25% profit on goods sold, then SP represents 125% of CP.

=> 125/100 x CP = 225

=> CP =225 x 100/125 = 180
