Question 13

Two successive discounts of 5% and 15% are given by Rakesh on a table. If the marked price of the table is Rs 2000, then what is the value (in Rs) of discount?

Solution

Marked price = Rs. $$2000$$

Amount deducted on 1st discount of 5% = $$\frac{5}{100}\times2000=Rs.$$ $$100$$

Thus, net price = $$2000-100=Rs.$$ $$1900$$

Amount deducted on 2nd discount of 15% = $$\frac{15}{100}\times1900=Rs.$$ $$285$$

=> Value (in Rs) of discount = $$100+285=385$$

=> Ans - (A)
