SSC Selection Post - Higher Secondary Level - 31st July 2025 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q45

A dealer buys a product for Rs. 7680 and sells it at a gain of 40% after giving 20% discount. What is the marked price?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Cost Price = ₹7,680

Selling Price at 40% profit = 7,680 × 140/100= ₹10,752

Selling Price after a 20% discount = 80% of Marked Price

Let the Marked Price = ₹x

80% of x = 10,752

x = 10,752 × 100 / 80 = ₹13,440
