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)
