    A) Rs. 1275                       

    B) Rs. 1250

    C) Rs. 1175                       

    D) Rs. 1100

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Cost price of the article \[=Rs.\,900\] Profit per cent \[=10%\] \[\therefore \] SP of the article \[=Rs.\frac{990\times 110}{100}\]                         \[=Rs.\,990\] Let the marked price \[=Rs.\,x\] Then,    \[\frac{x\times 90}{100}=990\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x=Rs.\,1100\]
