The marked price of an article is ₹5320. It is subject to two successive discounts, the first being 15%, and the second at a rate of 20% of the first. What is the selling price (to nearest ₹) of the article? |
₹4522 ₹4127 ₹4000 ₹3617 |
₹3617 |
Marked price = 5320 Successive discount = x + y - \(\frac{x × y}{100}\) First discount = 15% Second discount = 20% Successive discount = 15 + 20 - \(\frac{15 × 20}{100}\) = 32% Now the selling price will be (100- 32 = 68) of the marked pricce So the selling price = 68% of 5320 = 3617 |
