  • question_answer
    Vinita bought a watch with 24% discount on the selling price. If the watch cost her Rs. 779, what is the original selling price of the watch?

    A)  Rs.1000   

    B)  Rs. 950    

    C)  Rs.1040   

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Let the original selling price be Rs.x. Therefore,      \[779=x\left( 1-\frac{24}{100} \right)\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[779=x\left( \frac{76}{100} \right)\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x=\frac{779\times 100}{76}=Rs.\,1025\]
