A man bought a watch for a 12% discount.
If he had bought it for a 24% discount, he would have got the watch for ₹2400 less.
Concept used:
Selling Price = Marked Price × (1 - Discount%)
Calculation:
Let the marked price be X.
According to the question,
X × (24 - 12)% = 2400
⇒ X = 2400/12%
⇒ X = 20,000
∴ The marked price of the watch is ₹20,000.
