5% की छूट देने के बाद एक दीवार घड़ी का विक्रय मूल्य ₹1,710 है। घड़ी का अंकित मूल्य क्या है?
Options:
- Rs. 1,760
- Rs. 1,780
- Rs. 1,800
- Rs. 1,820
- ₹1,760
- ₹1,780
- ₹1,800
- ₹1,820
Correct Answer: c)
Explanation:
\(\text{SP} = \text{MP} \times (1 – \text{Discount}) = \text{MP} \times 0.95\).
\(\text{MP} = \dfrac{1710}{0.95} = \text{Rs. } 1,800\).
\(\text{SP} = \text{MP} \times (1 – 0.05) = 0.95 \times \text{MP}\)।
\(\text{अंकित मूल्य (MP)} = \dfrac{1710}{0.95} = ₹1,800\)।
