a) Rs. 200
b) Rs. 240
c) Rs. 300
d) Rs. 450
e) Rs. 600
Answer »Answer: (c)
Let the cost price of the article = Rs. 100x, then
Marked price of the article = 100x + 50% of 100x = Rs. 150x
The selling price of the article = Rs. (150x – 50)
According to question

⇒ x = 2
Hence, the marked price of the article = Rs. 150x
= 150 × 2
= Rs. 300.
