Question 29

At 20% discount the selling price of an article is Rs 2400, what is the selling price (in Rs) if the discount is 32.5%?

Solution

$$\frac{100-20}{100} \times CP = 2400$$

$$\frac{80}{100} \times CP = 2400$$

$$CP = 3000$$

if 32.5% discount is allowed then,

$$SP = \frac{100-32.5}{100} \times 3000$$

$$SP = \frac{67.5}{100} \times 3000$$

$$SP = 2025$$

so the answer is option C.
