A dealer makes a profit of 20% even after giving a 10% discount on the advertised price of a scooter.If he makes a profit of Rs 7500 on the sale of the scooter, the advertise price was
(A) Rs 42000
(B) Rs 44000
(C) Rs 50000
(D) Rs 48000
Answer: (C)
Explanation: Let the Advertised price of the scooter be 10 units.Â
SP = 10discount 10% —> 9Â
CP = (9 * 100/120) = 7.5Â
Now, profit = SP – CPÂ
= 9 – 7.5 = 1.5Â
1.5 units  -> 7500Â
1 unit    -> 5000Â
10 units  -> 50000Â
Hence, the Advertised price of the scooter was Rs 50000.
