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%
