Find the S.P. if

Question:

Find the S.P. if

(i) M.P. = Rs 1300 and Discount = 10%

(ii) M.P. = Rs 500 and Discount = 15%

Solution:

(i) We know that $\mathrm{SP}=\mathrm{MP}-D$ iscount

Discount $\%=\frac{\text { Discount }}{\text { MP }} \times 100$

Discount $=\frac{\text { Discount } \% \times \mathrm{MP}}{100}$

$=\frac{10 \times 1300}{100}$

So, SP $=$ Rs. $\left(1300-\left(\frac{10}{100} \times 1300\right)\right)$

$=1300-130$

$=$ Rs. 1170

(ii) We know that $\mathrm{SP}=\mathrm{MP}-D$ iscount

Discount $\%=\frac{\text { Discount }}{\text { MP }} \times 100$

Discount $=\frac{\text { Discount } \% \times \mathrm{MP}}{100}$

$=\frac{15 \times 500}{100}$

So, SP $=$ Rs. $\left(500-\left(\frac{15}{100} \times 500\right)\right)$

$=$ Rs. $(500-75)$

$=$ Rs. 425
