A shopkeeper gives $12 \%$ additional discount on the discounted price, after giving an initial discount of $20 \%$ on the labelled price of a radio. If the final selling price of the radio is $Rs \,704$ then what is its labelled price?(In $Rs$)

A

$844.80$

B

$929.28$

C

$1000$

D

$1044.80$

Solution

Net discount $=\left(-12-20+\frac{240}{100}\right) \%=-29.6 \%$

$\therefore(100-29.6) \%$ of labelled price $=704$

$\therefore \quad$ Labelled price $=\frac{704}{70.4} \times 100=Rs. 1000$
