A shopkeeper allows a discount of 10% on the marked price of a camera. If the cost price of the camera is ₹3,600, find the marked price so that the shopkeeper can earn a profit of 20%, after allowing the 10% discount.

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Given: Cost Price (C.P.) = ₹3,600 Profit percentage = 20% Discount percentage = 10% Using the relation between C.P. and M.P. : \frac{M.P.}{C.P.} = \frac{100 + Profit %}{100 - Discount %} \frac{M.P.}{3600} = \frac{100 + 20}{100 - 10} = \frac{120}{90} = \frac{4}{3} M.P. = 3600 \times \frac{4}{3} = 1200 \times 4 = ₹ 4, 800
