Answer 2

★ SOLUTION

Given that : —

Marked price (Cost price) = ₹176

Selling Price = ₹165

Since, CP > SP

Therefore, there is loss.

Loss = CP – SP

= 176 – 165

= ₹ 11

This loss of ₹11 is the discount to the buyer.

So ,

Discount = ₹ 11

Now, we have to find discount %

[ Formula for calculating discount % ↓]

$\implies \: discount \: \% = \\ (\frac{discount}{marked \: price(cp)} \times 100) \: \%$

Now , substituting the values we get,

$\implies \: ( \frac{11}{176} \times 100) \: \% \\ \\ \implies \: (\frac{1}{16} \times 100) \: \% \\ \\ \implies \: \frac{25}{4} \: \% \\ \\ \implies \: 6.25 \: \%$

Hence, Discount % = 6.25 %
