Question

9 An article is sold at two successive
discounts of 50% each. Find the single
equivalent discount.​

Answer 1

Answer:

75 percent is the correct answer

Answer 2

Answer:

75%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the marked price = Rs. 100

Discount of 50% = 50/100 × 100

= Rs. 50

Again a discount of 50%

=50/100 ×50

= Rs. 25

_____________________________

With two successive discount

Decrease % =(100-25) / 100 ×100

Decrease % = 75%

so, one single discount of 75% = Two successive discount of 50%.
