Question

14. Find a single discount equivalent to three successive discounts of 20%, 5% and 1%.​

Answer 1

Answer:

24.76%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Marked Price be Rs.100.

Price after first discount = 80% of 100 = Rs.80

Price after second discount = 95% of 80 = Rs.76

Price after third discount = 99% of 76 = Rs.75.24

Hence, total discount = Rs.(100-75.24) = Rs.24.76

Therefore, the single discount will be 24.76%
