Answer 2

Answer:

₹115.2

Step-by-step explanation:

given -

man purchased a book cost = ₹160

discount on book = 20% and 10%

to find -

total amount paid by him after discount

solution -

He received first discount (20%) on MRP (₹160), so amount after first discount = MRP - 1st Discount

= ₹160 - ₹160×20%

= ₹160 - ₹160×20/100

= ₹160 - ₹32

= ₹128

then he received 10% discount, means 10% discount after 20% discount

amount after second discount = Amount after 1st discount - 2nd discount

= ₹128 - ₹128×10%

= ₹128 - ₹128×10/100

= ₹128 - ₹1280/100

= ₹128 - ₹12.8

= ₹115.2

Hence total amount after both discount = ₹115.2

hope it helps.
