The problem states that a tea set was bought for ₹528 after receiving a 12% discount on its marked price, and we need to find the original marked price.

### Let's denote:
- The marked price of the tea set = \( M \)
- The discount = 12%
- The price after the discount = ₹528

#### Step 1: Understand the relationship between marked price and selling price.
After a 12% discount, the customer pays 88% of the marked price (since \(100\% - 12\% = 88\%\)).

This means:
\[
528 = 88\% \text{ of } M
\]
Which translates to:
\[
528 = 0.88 \times M
\]

#### Step 2: Solve for \( M \) (the marked price).
\[
M = \frac{528}{0.88}
\]
\[
M = 600
\]

So, the marked price of the tea set is ₹600.

### Tip:
When solving percentage problems, always start by determining what percentage of the original value you're dealing with after the change (e.g., a discount or markup).
