Question 59

A machine is marked at 7,500. The shopkeeper allows successive discount of 8%, 5% and 2% on it The net selling price is

Solution

Marked price = Rs. $$7500$$

After 1st discount of 8%, price = $$7500-(\frac{8}{100}\times7500)$$

= $$7500-600=6900$$

After 2nd discount of 5% (on changed price), selling price = $$6900-(\frac{5}{100}\times6900)$$

= $$6900-345=Rs.$$ $$6555$$

After 3rd discount of 2%, net selling price = $$6555-(\frac{2}{100}\times6555)$$

= $$6555-131.10=Rs.$$ $$6423.90$$
