Question : A store offers a variety of discounts that range between 20% and 25% inclusive. If a book is discounted to a price of Rs. 270, its greatest possible original price was:
Option 1: Rs. 345.5
Option 2: Rs. 324
Option 3: Rs. 360
Option 4: Rs. 337.5
Correct Answer: Rs. 360
Solution : The greatest possible buying price will be when the discount is maximum. Here, we are taking maximum discount = 25% If the price is Rs. $y$, then $\frac{75}{100}\text{of y}=270$ ∴ $y =360$ So, its greatest possible original price was Rs. 360. Hence, the correct
