Practicing Success
Under a sale offer for an item, Mahesh was offered 24% discount on the part of the marked price that was paid in cash, but was charged 1.5% on the part of the marked price paid through a credit card. If Mahesh paid 40% of the marked price in cash and the rest through a credit card and his total final payment was ₹6,391, what was the marked price of the item? |
₹7,200 ₹6,900 ₹7,050 ₹7,000 |
₹7,000 |
Let the marked price = 100x Amount with 24% discount paid in cash = \(\frac{19{25}\) × \(\frac{2}{5}\) × 100x = 30.4x = 60.9x ATQ, 30.4x + 60.9x = 6391 x = 70 |
