An article costing rs.160 is sold at 15% discount on a mark-up price. What is the selling price after
discount?

  160-(160*15/100)=160*85/100=136

• as 100 % of cp = 160
  100-15 % of Cp that is SP = (160*85)/100
  and the answer is 136 rupees. i think 160 might not be Cp but , if it is MP then or PRICE then , this approach is correct

• let the mark up price is 200;
  15% discount 200*15/100=30
  hence selling price is 200-30=170

• 160-160(15/100)
  =160-24
  =136

• 15% of 160
  =10%+5% of 160
  =16+8
  =Rs.24
  SP=160-24=Rs.136
