Question

P bought two mobiles at total marked price of Rs.2200 . The discount percentage on one mobile and second mobile is 10% and 12% respectively. The difference between the selling price of two mobiles is Rs.156. Find the marked price of one mobile.
1. Rs.900
2. Rs.1100
3. Rs.800
4. Rs.1000

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 4 : Rs.1000

Given:

Selling price = marked price × (100 - discount %)/100

Calculation:

Let marked price of one mobile and second mobile be Rs.a and Rs.(2200 - a) respectively.

Selling price of one mobile = a × 90/100 = Rs.9a/10

Selling price of second mobile = (2200 - a) × 88/100 = Rs.(1936 - 22a/25)

⇒ 1936 - 22a/25 - 9a/10 = 156

⇒ a = 1000

∴ The marked price of one mobile is Rs.1000.
