Question

A Person pays 2,800for a cooler listed at 3,500. Find the discount percent offered

Answer 1

Answer :

20 %

Step-by-step explanation :

Given,

Marked Price = Rs. 3500

Discounted Price = Rs. 2800

Discount % = x

Method,

Discount %;

$\tt\dfrac{marked \: price \: - \: changed \: price}{marked \: price} \: \times \: 100$

Solving,

x % =

$\tt\dfrac{3500 \: - \: 2800}{3500} \: \times \: 100$

$\tt\dfrac{700}{3500} \: \times \: 100$

After Cancellation...

20 %

Hence, the discount given is,

$\huge\underline{20 \: \%}$

Some formulas -

CP = $\tt\dfrac{100\timesSP}{100 \: + \: P \: \%$

CP = $\tt\dfrac{100\timesSP}{100 \: - \: L\%}$

SP = $\tt\dfrac{100 \: + \: p\% \ -l \%\timesCP}{100}$
