Answer 1

Given:- List price of the printer= Rs 8400,

Discounted price of the printer= Rs 6300

To find:- Rate of discount offered

Solution:- The formula to calculate discount percentage is:-

Discount % = (Discount÷List Price) × 100.

Discount= List price- Selling price

discount= Rs 8400- Rs 6300=Rs 2100

Substituting the values in the formula:-

Discount % = (2100÷8400) × 100.

Discount % = 25%

Hence the Rate of Discount offered on the printer is 25%

Answer 2

Given :

• List price of the Printer = Rs.8400
• Selling price of the printer = Rs.6300

To Find :

• Discount % = ?

Solution :

${\green{✭}}$ Formula Used :

• ${\underline{\boxed{\orange{\sf{ Discount = List \; Price - Selling \; Price }}}}}$

• ${\underline{\boxed{\orange{\sf{ Discount \; \% = \bigg\lgroup \dfrac{Discount}{List \; Price} \bigg\rgroup \times 100 }}}}}$

$\\ \qquad{\rule{150pt}{1pt}}$

${\green{✭}}$ Calculating the Discount % :

$:\implies{\qquad{\sf{ Discount \; \% = \bigg\lgroup \dfrac{Discount}{List \; Price} \bigg\rgroup \times 100 }}} \\ \\ \\ \ :\implies{\qquad{\sf{ Discount \; \% = \bigg\lgroup \dfrac{List \; Price - Selling \; Price}{List \; Price} \bigg\rgroup \times 100 }}} \\ \\ \\ \ :\implies{\qquad{\sf{ Discount \; \% = \bigg\lgroup \dfrac{8400 - 6300}{8400} \bigg\rgroup \times 100 }}} \\ \\ \\ \ :\implies{\qquad{\sf{ Discount \; \% = \bigg\lgroup \dfrac{2100}{8400} \bigg\rgroup \times 100 }}} \\ \\ \\ \ :\implies{\qquad{\sf{ Discount \; \% = \bigg\lgroup \dfrac{2100}{84\cancel{00}} \bigg\rgroup \times \cancel{100} }}} \\ \\ \\ \ :\implies{\qquad{\sf{ Discount \; \% = \dfrac{2100}{84} }}} \\ \\ \\ \ :\implies{\qquad{\sf{ Discount \; \% = \cancel\dfrac{2100}{84} }}} \\ \\ \\ \ {\qquad \; \; {\therefore \; {\underline{\boxed{\purple{\pmb{\frak{ Discount \; \% = 25 \; \% }}}}}}}}$

$\\ \qquad{\rule{150pt}{1pt}}$
