Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
Let us consider the marked price of the jacket is Rs. x.
It is given that the marked price of pants is Rs. 8500 less than the marked price of the jacket. Therefore the marked price of pants is Rs x - 8500.
If there is 30% off on marked price, that means someone needs to pay 70% of the marked price.
If the marked price of the jacket is Rs. x. Then, someone needs to pay 70% of x. Which can be written as:
If there is 40% off on marked price, that means someone needs to pay 60% of the marked price.
If the marked price of the pants is Rs. x - 8500 then, someone needs to pay 60% of x - 8500. Which can be written as:
The total sale price of both items is Rs. 23500, which can be written as:
Therefore, the marked price of jacket is 22000. - 3 Months agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
