  1. After allowing a discount of 20%, a radio is available for Rs. 1200. Its marked price was :
    1. Rs. 1550
    2. Rs. 1500
    3. Rs. 1800
    4. Rs. 1400
Correct Option: B

Let the marked price of radio be Rs. x.
According to the question,
80% of x = 1200

⇒ 
x × 80
= 1200
100

Second Method : Here, D = 20%, S.P. = Rs. 1200, M.P. = ?
M.P. =
S.P. × 100
100 − D

=
1200 × 100
100 − 20

M.P. =
120000
80

M.P. = Rs. 1500
