Answer 1

Answer:

Selling price of the shirt = ₹416

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Marked price of a shirt = ₹520

Discount = 15%

Special Discount = 5%

To find :

Selling price

Taken :

To find the selling price by taking marked price , use this formula :

$\boxed{\sf{S=M\times\dfrac{100\%-D}{100\%}}}$

Where,

S = Selling price

M = Marked price

D = Discount

Solution :

$\leadsto\sf{S=Rs.520\times\dfrac{100\%-20\%}{100\%}}$

Taken , 20% discount because there is given 15% and 5% special discount . So , their sum is 20% .

$\leadsto\sf{S=Rs.520\times\dfrac{80\%}{100\%}}$

$\leadsto\sf{S=5.2\times80}$

$\leadsto\sf{S=Rs.416}$

So , the Selling price of the shirt is ₹416.
