A shopkeeper announces a discount of 48% and then by a further discount of 15%. What is the final sale price (in Rs. to the nearest rupee) of a sofa costing Rs 29600 and what is the discount (in Rs) ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
MP of the sofa = 29600
48% = \(\frac{12}{25}\)
15% = \(\frac{3}{20}\)
ATQ,
Selling price of sofa = 29600 × \(\frac{13}{25}\) × \(\frac{17}{20}\) = 13083
Discount on sofa = 29600 - 13083 = 16517
