Question 128

An item is offered for sale at Rs. 250, less by successive discounts of 20% and 15%. The sale price of the item is:

Solution

Marked price = Rs. 250

Selling price after first discount of 20% = $$250-(\frac{20}{100}\times250)$$

= $$250-50=Rs.$$ $$200$$

Similarly, selling price after second discount of 15% = $$200-(\frac{15}{100}\times200)$$

= $$200-30=Rs.$$ $$170$$

$$\therefore$$ Sale price of item = $$\frac{170}{250}\times100=68\%$$

=> Ans - (C)
