SSC MTS Profit and Loss question with solution
Profit and LossEasySSC MTS 2024
The marked price of a watch is ₹1,600. If a discount of 10% is allowed, what is its selling price?
- (A)₹1,760
- (B)₹1,360
- (C)₹1,440
- (D)₹1,590
Correct answer: (C) ₹1,440
Discount = 10% of 1600 = 160. Selling price = marked price − discount = 1600 − 160 = 1440. So the watch is sold for ₹1,440.
Shortcut: SP = MP × (100 − d)/100 = 1600 × 90/100.
