Question

A retailer offers a discount of 16%, a
shopkeeper purchased 7 dinner sets of marked
price Rs 2,400 each, and 3 pressure cookers
marked at Rs 1,200 each. Find the amount
paid by the shopkeeper to the retailer.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

no. of dinner sets shopkeeper purchased = 7

cost price of each dinner set = Rs 2400

then, cost price of 7 dinner sets=2400*7=16800Rs

he also purchased 3 pressure cookers

cost price of each cooker = Rs 1200

then, cost price of 3 cookers = 1200*3 = 3600 Rs

total amount of money he need to pay = 3600+16800 = 20400 Rs

the discount retailer provided = 16%

= (16/100)*20400

= 3264 Rs

total amount of money shopkeeper paid = 20400-3264 = 17136 Rs

hope it helps you....
