Question

A table marked at Rs. 15,000 is available for Rs. 14,700. Find the discount percent.

Answer 1

★GIVEN★

• Marked Price ( M.P.) = Rs. 15,000
• Selling Price (S.P.) = Rs. 14,700

★To Find★

The discount percent.

★SOLUTION★

We know that,

$\large{\green{\underline{\boxed{\bf{Discount=M.P.-S.P.}}}}}$

$\large{\green{\underline{\boxed{\bf{Discount\%=\dfrac{Discount}{Marked\:Price}\times100}}}}}$

According to the question,

$\large\implies{\sf{Discount=MP-SP}}$

$\large\implies{\sf{Discount=Rs.(15,000-14,700)}}$

$\large\therefore\boxed{\bf{Discount=Rs.300}}$

Now,

$\large\implies{\sf{Discount\%=\dfrac{Discount}{Marked\:Price}\times100}}$

$\large\implies{\sf{Discount\%=\dfrac{300}{15000}\times100}}$

$\large\implies{\sf{Discount\%=\dfrac{3\:\cancel{00}}{15\:\cancel{000}}\times10\cancel{0}}}$

$\large\implies{\sf{Discount\%=\dfrac{3\times10}{15}}}$

$\large\implies{\sf{Discount\%=\dfrac{30}{15}}}$

$\large\implies{\sf{Discount\%=\dfrac{\cancel{30}}{\cancel{15}}}}$

$\large\therefore\boxed{\bf{Discount\%=2\%.}}$

$\large{\green{\underline{\boxed{\bf{Discount\:Percent\:is\:2\%.}}}}}$

$\implies\huge \sf \underline \red{solution }$

• Marked price = 15,000
• selling price = 14,700

➪we know that discount formula

• Da = discount amount

$\sf{ \underline{ \boxed{ \tt{ \pink{DA= marked \: price - selling \: price \: }}}}}$

$\implies \rm{ = 15000 - 14700}$

$\implies \rm{ = 300}$

$\bf { \boxed{ \underline{ \underline{ \red{ \bf{ discount \: amount= 300 \: }}}}}}$

➪we know that discount percent formula:

• Dp = discount percent

$\bf{ \boxed{ \underline{ \orange{ \tt{</u><u>Dp</u><u> = \dfrac{discount}{marked \: price} \times 100 \: }}}}}$

$\implies \rm{DA = \dfrac{300}{15000} \times 100 }$

$\implies \rm{ = 2 \: percent }$

$\bf { \boxed{ \underline{ \underline{ \blue{ \bf{ discount \: percent= 2 \: }}}}}}$
