Question :-

• Find the discount % offered by a computer shop that sells a computer marked at 27000 for 25245.

Answer :-

• The discount percentage offered by a computer shop that sells a computer marked at 27000 for 25245 is 6.5%.

Given :-

• Selling price = 25245 rupees.
• Cost price = 27000 rupees.

To find :-

• Discount percentage.

Step by step explanation :-

In the question, Cost price and selling price are given i.e 27000(CP) and 25245(SP).

We are asked to find Discount %.

To find Discount percentage, We need to find Discount price first.

We will use the formula given below, To find Discount price :-

$\boxed{ \mathfrak{Discount = Cost \: price - Selling \: price }}$

Applying this,

$\implies \sf 27000 - 25245$

$\implies \sf 1755$

Thus, Discount price is 1755 rupees.

Now, To find Discount percentage, We will use use the formula given below :-

$\boxed{\mathfrak{Discount \% = \: \dfrac{Discount}{CP} \times 100}}$

By applying this, We get :-

$\implies \sf \dfrac{1755}{27000} \times 100$

Cutting off the zeroes, We are left with :-

$\implies \sf \dfrac{1755}{27 0 \cancel{0} \cancel{0}} \times 1\cancel{0} \cancel{0}$

$\implies \sf \dfrac{1755}{270} \times 1$

Dividing 1755 by 270,

$\implies \sf \dfrac{1755}{270}$

$\implies \sf \purple{6.5\%}$

Therefore, The discount percentage offered by a computer shop that sells a computer marked at 27000 for 25245 is 6.5%.
