A shopkeeper sells an article at a discount of 12%. Had he given only a 5% discount, he would have earned ₹504 more as profit. If the cost price of the article is ₹3,000, then find the marked price.
₹7,200
₹6,800
₹6,500
₹7,500
Answer: A
The difference between the discounts is 12% - 5% = 7%. Therefore, 7% of the marked price = ₹504. Marked Price = 504 × 100 / 7 = ₹7,200.
एक दुकानदार एक वस्तु को 12% की छूट पर बेचता है। यदि उसने केवल 5% की छूट दी होती, तो उसे ₹504 अधिक लाभ होता। अगर वस्तु का क्रय मूल्य ₹3,000 है, तो अंकित मूल्य ज्ञात कीजिए।
₹7,200
₹6,800
₹6,500
₹7,500
उत्तर: A
छूट का अंतर = 12% - 5% = 7%। अतः अंकित मूल्य का 7% = ₹504। अंकित मूल्य = 504 × 100 / 7 = ₹7,200।
