Answer: $Rs. 166.67$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mark up price is 25% higher than cost price

The shopkeeper gives a discount of 10%

Suppose the cost price is $x$

Mark up price is $1.25x$

Selling price is

$\Rightarrow 1.25x\times 0.9=1.125x$

It is given Rs150

$\therefore 150=1.125x\\\Rightarrow x=\text{Rs}133.33$

Marked up price is $\text{Rs }166.67$
