Saba bought a dress at a discount of 30% for RS. 6300. The marked price of the dress would be _____?
Answer: Rs. 9000
Explanation
Let's call the marked price "x".
Since Saba got a 30% discount, she paid 70% of the marked price (100% - 30% = 70%).
The amount she paid is Rs. 6300, so:
70% of x = 6300
0.7x = 6300
x = 6300 / 0.7
x = 9000
