Question:

A dealer offers 45% discount on a packet. She offers a further discount of 25% on the reduced price on cash payment. What does a customer has to pay for the packet of ₹2,800, in cash, to avail both discounts?

Options:

₹ 1,480

₹ 1,350

₹ 1,155

₹ 1,230

Correct Answer:

₹ 1,155

Explanation:

Marked price= ₹2,800

45% =  \(\frac{9}{20}\)

25% = \(\frac{1}{4}\)

According to the question the customer has to pay = 2,800 × \(\frac{11}{20}\) × \(\frac{3}{4}\) = ₹ 1,155
