Question:

20% discount is offered on an item. By applying a promo code Rishi wins 4% cash back. What is the equivalent single discount?

Options:

33%

23.20%

22.60%

24%

Correct Answer:

23.20%

Explanation:

Discount = 20%

Cashback = 4%

Equivalent single discount =  x + y - \(\frac{x × y}{100}\)

                                       =   20 +4 - \(\frac{20 × 4}{100}\) = 23.20%
