Question 72

Solution
A company bought a machine for ₹40000 and spent ₹10000 on its repairs.
The total price of the machine = ₹40000+₹10000 = ₹50000
After some time, the machine was sold for ₹45000.
Discount percent = $$\frac{\left(50000-45000\right)}{50000}\times\ 100$$
= $$\frac{5000}{50000}\times\ 100$$
= 10%
