being offered in % for purchase of 2 and 3 T-Shirts.
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A man buys 1 T-shirt for 600/-

hence, 2 T-shirt for 1200/- ... ( l )

similarly, 3 T-shirt for 1800/- ... ( ll )

Now,

The rupees received on 2 T-shirts

on discount = 1200 - 1100/- .... from ( l )

= 100/-

Hence, % discount received

= (100 ÷ 1200) × 100

= 8.34%

Similarly,

The rupees received on 3 T-shirts

on discount = 1800 - 1500/- .... from ( ll )

= 300/-

Hence, % discount received

= (300 ÷ 1800) × 100

= 0.167%
