\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Original Price - 15% of original pirce = Selling Price
\n" ); document.write( "x-0.15x=1275
\n" ); document.write( "0.85x=1275
\n" ); document.write( "0.85x/0.85=1275/0.85
\n" ); document.write( "x=1500\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Original Price of Watch = Rs. 1500
\n" ); document.write( "10% of 1500 = 10/100 * 1500 = 1/10 * 1500 = 1500/10 = 150
\n" ); document.write( "Selling price at 10% profit = 1500 + 150 = 1650\r
