Question 54
If an item whose marked price is ₹1,000 is sold after two successive discounts of l0% and 15%, then find the price at which the item is sold.
Solution
If an item whose marked price is ₹1,000 is sold after two successive discounts of l0% and 15%.
The price at which the item is sold (selling price) = 1000 of (100-10)% of (100-15)%
= 1000 of 90% of 85%
= $$1000\times\frac{90}{100}\times\frac{85}{100}$$
= $$9\times85$$
= 765
