Flat 40 discount a girl buys jacket for 480 what is the marked price

40% discount.. means buy on 60% Marked price.
then 480 is 60% of the marked price
480/60=8
8 is 1% of marked price

1200 is not the right answer... As the girl had bought the jacket at 40% off.. which meand that she had pasi 60% of the marked price... not 40%..
So correct your answer which is 800.

selling price of jacket is 480 rs.
and selling price = marked price - %discount on marked price
let m.p be x
so %discount = 40x/100
therefore, x - (40x/100) = 480
that gives x = 800

let m.p be x
so 40/100 *x=480
x=1200
