The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the marked price of the article given that it is sold for Rs. 3000 after a discount of 12.5%. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understand the relationship between Selling Price, Marked Price, and Discount**: - The Selling Price (SP) is given as Rs. 3000. - The discount percentage is 12.5% on the Marked Price (MP). 2. **Set up the equation**: - Let the Marked Price be \( X \). - The discount amount can be calculated as \( 12.5\% \) of \( X \), which is \( \frac{12.5}{100} \times X = 0.125X \). - Therefore, the Selling Price can be expressed as: \[ SP = MP - \text{Discount} \] \[ 3000 = X - 0.125X \] 3. **Simplify the equation**: - Combining the terms on the right side gives: \[ 3000 = 0.875X \] 4. **Solve for Marked Price (X)**: - To find \( X \), divide both sides by 0.875: \[ X = \frac{3000}{0.875} \] 5. **Calculate the value**: - Performing the division: \[ X = 3000 \div 0.875 = 3428.57 \] - Thus, the Marked Price is approximately Rs. 3428.57. 6. **Compare with Quantity I**: - Quantity I is Rs. 1100. - Quantity II is the Marked Price, which we calculated as Rs. 3428.57. 7. **Conclusion**: - Since Rs. 3428.57 (Quantity II) is greater than Rs. 1100 (Quantity I), we can conclude that Quantity II is greater. ### Final Answer: - Quantity I: Rs. 1100 - Quantity II: Marked Price of article: Rs. 3428.57 - Therefore, Quantity II > Quantity I. ---
