- A shopkeeper fixes the marked price of an item 35% above its cost price.
Question 1:
A shopkeeper fixes the marked price of an item 35% above its cost price. The percentage of discount allowed to gain 8% is A. 18%
B. 20%
Feedback Let the cost price = Rs 100
then, Marked price = Rs 135
Required gain = 8%,
So Selling price = Rs 108
Discount = 135 - 108 = 27
Discount% = (27/135)*100 = 20%
then, Marked price = Rs 135
Required gain = 8%,
So Selling price = Rs 108
Discount = 135 - 108 = 27
Discount% = (27/135)*100 = 20%
C. 22%
D. 24%
