Find the sp when :
a. MP=1200, discount =15%
b. MP=550, discount =12%

Given:

a. MP $=1200$, discount $=15 \%$ b. MP $=550$, discount $=12 \%$

To do:

We have to find the SP.

Solution:

We know that,

SP $=$ MP $-$ Discount

Discount $= \frac{(MP \times Discount \%)}{100}$

Therefore,

a. M.P. $= 1200$

Discount $= 15 \%$

Discount $= \frac{(1200\times15)}{100}$

$= Rs.\ 180$

SP $= 1200 - 180$

$= Rs.\ 1020$

b. M.P. $= 550$

Discount $= 12 \%$

Discount $= \frac{(550 \times 12)}{100}$

$= Rs.\ 66$

SP $=550 - 66$

$= Rs.\ 484$
