Let the marked price of radio be ₹ $x$.

$C.P.$ $=Rs. 1200 ; \quad$ $S.P.$ $=0.8 	imes x ; \quad \%$ profit $=25 \%$

$	herefore \quad \%$ profit $=\frac{	ext { S.P. }-	ext { C.P. }}{	ext { C.P. }} 	imes 100$

i.e. $\frac{0.8 x-1200}{1200} 	imes 100=25$

i.e. $\frac{0.8 x}{1200}=\frac{25}{100}+1$

i.e. $\frac{0.8 x}{1200}=\frac{125}{100}$

or $x=\frac{125 	imes 1200}{100 	imes 0.8}=125 	imes 15=Rs. 1875$
