Question

A merchant allows a discount of 15% on the clothes purchased.manohsr purchases clothes worth 470.the money will be give is what

Answer 1

So total cost of purchase is 470
Now,
15% of  470 is,
(470 * 15)/100 = 70.5

So,
He has to pay 70.5 on total amount less 
So amount he needs to give to merchant is,
=470-70.5
=399.5

So he will give only 399.5 rupees to the merchant  

Answer 2

Given conditions ⇒

Discount % = 15 %
Selling Price of the Clothes = Rs. 470

∵ Price Paid by the Manoshar = S.P. - Discount.

∴ Discount = S.P. × D%/100
    = 470 × 15/100
    = Rs. 70.5

∴ Price Paid = 470 - 70.5
   = Rs. 399.5


Hence, the Price Paid by the Manoshar for the clothes will be Rs. 399.5


Hope it helps.
