A manufacturer who marks the price of an article at 1,800, sells it to a dealer at a discount of 15%. The dealer gets a further discount of 8% on his net payment for paying in cash. What amount (to the nearest rupee) does the dealer pay to the manufacturer?

1,408

Marked price of the article = 1800

Discounts given = 15% and 8%

Selling price of the article = 1800 × \(\frac{85}{100}\) ×  \(\frac{92}{100}\) 

Selling price of the article  = 1,408(Approx)
