Arjun Bought A T.v With 20% Discount On The Labelled Price. Had He Bought It With 25% Discount, He Would Have Saved Rs. 500. At What Price Did He Buy The T.v?

Answer»

LET labeled price was 100.

Arjun bought T.V with 20% DISCOUNT, then

Cost price of the T.V =labeled price - 20% oflabeled price

= 100 - (20% of 100)

= 80 Rs.

If Arjunbought it at 25% discount, then

Cost price of the T.V =100 - 25% of 100

= 75 Rs.

Given, If Arjun bought T.V with 25% discount he would have saved Rs.500.

So, Difference between Cost price for 20% and 25% discount = 500

=> 80 - 75 = 500

=> 5 parts = 500

=> 1 PART = 500/5

=>1 part = 100

Then, the actual Cost price of the T.V =80 parts = 100 *80 = 8000.

Correct Answer is Rs. 8000.
