Correct Answer: Rs. 300
Solution : Given: The selling price was Rs. 255 and the discount was 15%. $\text{SP}=\text{MP}\times \frac{100-\text{Discount}\%}{100}$, where SP = selling price, MP = marked price $⇒255=\text{MP}\times \frac{100-15%}{100}$ $⇒255=\text{MP}\times \frac{85}{100}$ $⇒\text{MP}=\frac{255\times 100}{85} = 300$ So, the marked price is Rs. 300. Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 300.
