Question 65

At 24% discount the selling price of a washing machine is Rs 38000, what is the selling price if the discount is 40%?

Solution

Let Marked Price of the machine = $$Rs. 100x$$

If discount is 24%, Selling price = $$\frac{100 - 24}{100} \times 100x = 76x$$

According to ques, => $$76x = 38000$$

=> $$x = \frac{38000}{76} = 500$$

If discount is 40%, selling price = $$\frac{100 - 40}{100} \times 100x = 60x$$

= $$60 \times 500 = Rs. 30,000$$

=> Ans - (B)
