60,000 and Rs. 30,000, respectively. The shopkeeper sold the smartphone and the laptop at a loss of 12% and at a profit of 18%, respectively. If there was a combined discount of 25% on both the laptop and the smartphone, then find the combined marked price of the laptop and the smartphone.Solution
ATQ: Selling price of the laptop = 60,000 × 1.18 = Rs. 70,800 Selling price of the smartphone = 30,000 × 0.88 = Rs. 26,400 Combined selling price = 70,800 + 26,400 = Rs. 97,200 Therefore, combined marked price = (97,200 ÷ 0.75) = Rs. 1,29,600
