    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​​
