Question 88

Marked price of a computer is Rs 48000 and discount is 13%. What is additional discount (in percentage) should be offered to the customer to bring the price of computer to Rs 39672?

Solution

Marked price of computer = Rs. 48,000 and discount = 13%

=> Selling price = $$48,000-(\frac{13}{100}\times48,000)$$

= $$48000-6240=Rs.$$ $$41,760$$

Final selling price = Rs. 39,672

=> Additional discount % = $$\frac{(41760-39670)}{41760}\times100$$

= $$\frac{2090}{417.6}\approx5\%$$

=> Ans - (B)
