Let the marked price of the cooker be P.
The price of the cooker with a 17% discount is P - 850.
17% of the marked price is 0.17P.
Therefore, the selling price of the cooker is P - 0.17P = 0.83P - 850.
Given that the selling price is P - 850, we have:
0.83P - 850 = P - 850
0.83P = P
0.17P = 850
P = 5000
So, the marked price of the cooker is shilling 5000.
The selling price of the cooker is:
0.83 x 5000 - 850 = shilling 4150.
Therefore, the selling price of the cooker is shilling 4150 and the marked price is shilling 5000.
The price of a cooker with reduced by shilling 850 during the cell 17% represents a discount determine the selling price of the cooker and determine the marked price of the cooker
