Question

A furniture maker sells a wooden table listed Rs.2,500 for Rs.2,200. Find
the rate of discount.

Answer 1

Answer:

the discount is rupees 300

Step-by-step explanation:

as we subtract 2500 from 2200 so we will get 300

Answer 2

Answer:

MP = Rs 2500

SP = Rs 2200

Discount = MP - SP

= 2500 - 2200

= 300

Discount % = $\frac{Discount}{MP}$ × 100

$\frac{300}{2500}$ × 100

$\frac{3}{25}$ × 100

3 × 4

12% Discount

Verify:-

MP - Discount% = SP

2500 - [$\frac{12}{100}$ × 2500] = 2200

2500 - [12 × 25] = 2200

2500 - 300 = 2200

2200 = 2200

LHS = RHS

Hence, verified
