(b) 15%
(C) 14.5%
(d) 13%​

Answer 1

Answer:

Watch price= rs 1150

Discount= rs 1000

Discount percent = amount of difference/original amount x100

So,

discount % = 150/1150 x 100

                  = 15/115 x 100

                  = 0.3(approximate) x 100

                  = 13%

So d)13% is the answer
