Question

Rahul bought a sweater and saved ₹200 when a discount of 25% was given. What was the price of the sweater before the discount?

A.

₹600

B.

₹650

C.

₹800

D.

₹400

Correct option is C

Given:

Discount = 25%

Discount amount = ₹200

Formula Used:

Discount = Discount %×Original Price100\frac{\text{Discount \%} \times \text{Original Price}}{100}​​

Solution:

Let the original price be x

Then, 25% of x = ₹200

25100×x=200  x=200×10025 x=800\frac{25}{100} \times x = 200 \\ \ \\ \implies x = \frac{200\times 100}{25} \\ \ \\ x = ₹800​​
