Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

Discount percent = 10 and marked price = Rs. 840

$ \therefore $ Selling price $ =\frac{(100-Discountpercent)\times Markedprice}{100} $ $ =\frac{90\times 840}{100}=Rs\text{.}756 $ Now, dealer still gains a profit of 26%.

$ \therefore $ CP of cycle $ =\frac{100\times SP}{100+Profitpercent} $ $ =\frac{100\times 756}{(100+26)}=\frac{75600}{126}=Rs.600 $
