The bar graph given below shows the marked price and value of discount of articles L, M, N, P, Q, R and S.
The total discount on all the article is what percent of the total marked price of all the articles?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Total discount = 600 + 300 + 600 + 500 + 400 + 300 + 300 = 3000
Total marked price = 1200 + 800 + 1000 + 700 + 500 + 600 + 1100 = 5900
Required percentage = \(\frac{3000}{5900}\) × 100 = 50.84%
