Solution
let the original price be Rs y
So after 20% discount it becomes = 0.8 y
Now as the article is sold at 15 % profit so Selling Price = 1.15 × 0.8 y = 1840
y = Rs 2000
let the original price be Rs y
So after 20% discount it becomes = 0.8 y
Now as the article is sold at 15 % profit so Selling Price = 1.15 × 0.8 y = 1840
y = Rs 2000
