Question:

Marked price of a computer is Rs.80000. It is sold for Rs.65280 after two successive discounts. If one of the discount is 15 percent then what is the value of other discount?

Options:

7 percent

5 percent

6 percent

4 percent

Correct Answer:

4 percent

Explanation:

Marked price = 80000

Selling price after 15% discount = 85% of the marked price = 68000

Now the final selling price given = 65280 

Discount = 68000 - 65280 = 2720

Discount% = \(\frac{2720 × 100}{68000}\) = 4%
