• 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
  then 8*100=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
