Correct Answer: Rs. 925


Solution : Let the marked price of the articles = 100
Discount on the marked price = 20%
Selling price of the articles = 100 – 20 = 80
If the selling price of articles is 80, then the marked price = 100
If the selling price of the articles is Rs.740, then marked price = $\frac{(100×740)}{80}= 925$
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 925.
