    A) Rs. 600

    B)  Rs. 540   

    C)  Rs. 660

    D)  Rs. 580

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Let the marked price of article be Rs. 100. \[\therefore \] Selling price \[=100\times \frac{(100-10)}{100}\]= Rs. 90 \[\therefore \] Cost price of article \[=90\times \frac{100}{100+20}\]= Rs. 75 When CP of an article is Rs. 75, then MP is Rs. 100 When CP is Rs. 450, then MP will be \[=\frac{100}{75}\times 450\]= Rs. 600
