Answer:
:
Steps: 2 Mark
Price before discount:1 Mark
Selling price: 1Mark
Given that,
Radhika bought a new mobile phone and saved ₹1000 when a discount of 10$\%$ was given.
We can infer from the above statement that 10$\%$ of theoriginal price= ₹ 1000
10$\%$ of the original price = ₹ 1000
Let the price be P.
$\Rightarrow 10\%\text{of P = 1000}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{10}{100}\times \text{P = 1000}$
$\Rightarrow \text{P}=\frac{1000\times 100}{10}$
$\Rightarrow P$ = ₹ 10000
Hence the original price of the mobile phone is ₹ 10000.
Now, the original price of the mobile phone is ₹ 10000.
Discount given = ₹ 1000
$\therefore$ The Selling price or the price at which the phone was sold = Original Price - Discount
On substituting the values we get:
Selling Price = 10000 - 1000 = ₹ 9000
Hence, the mobile phone was sold at ₹ 9000.
