A) Rs.1000 |
Let marked price of the article = Rs.x
Therefore, SP of the article after a discount of 10%
= \( \Large x \times \left(\frac{100-10}{100}\right) \) = Rs.\( \Large \frac{9x}{10} \)
CP of the article with a profit of 12.5%
= \( \Large \frac{9x}{10} \times \frac{100}{100+125}=Rs.\frac{9x}{10} \times \frac{100}{1125} \)
But CP of the article = Rs.800
Therefore x = \( \Large \frac{800 \times 1125 \times 10}{9 \times 100} \) = Rs.1000
