    A seller allows a discount of 5% on a watch. If he allows a discount of 7%, he earns Rs.15 less in m profit. What is the marked price?

    A) Rs. 697.50

    B)  Rs. 712.50

    C)  Rs. 750

    D)  Rs. 817.50

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let the marked price be Rs. x. Then, (95% of x) \[-\] (93% of x)= 15 \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\left( \frac{95}{100}\times x \right)-\left( \frac{93}{100}\times x \right)=15\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[95x-93x=1500\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[2x=1500\] \[\Rightarrow \]   x = Rs. 750
