Practicing Success
Vikram allows two successive discounts of 20% and 10% on the marked price of a book, which is equal to a single discount of Rs.252. Then how much, profit will Vikram get, on that book, if the cost price is Rs.600 ? |
Rs.72 Rs.56 Rs.48 Rs.54 |
Rs.48 |
Successive discount = x + y - \(\frac{x × y}{100}\) Successive discount = 20 + 10 - \(\frac{20 × 10}{100}\) = 28% 28% of the MP = 252 72% of the MP = 648 CP = 600 Profit = 648 - 600 = 48 |
