after getting two equal succesive discount on watch diana pays $512.If the mark price of watch is &$800,then find rate of succesive discount
Answers
Answer:
Answer : 15%
Step-by-step explanation:
M.P.=Rs800, First discount = 10%
∴ Net price after the first discount =90% of Rs800=0.9×Rs800=Rs720
Final price after the second discount =Rs612
∴ Second discount =Rs720−Rs612=Rs108
⇒ Second discount rate =
108/720 ×100% =15%
The successive discount is 15%
GIVEN: After getting two equal successive discounts on the watch Diana pays $512.If the marked price of the watch is &$800
TO FIND: Rate of successive discount
SOLUTION:
As we are given in the question,
Maximum Retailed Price = Rs800
First discount = 10%
Therefore,
Net price after the first discount
=(100% - 10%) = 90% MRP
=0.9×Rs800
=Rs720
Also, we are given,
Final price after the second discount =Rs612
Second discount
=Rs720−Rs612
=Rs108
Therefore,
Second discount rate =
108/720 ×100% =15%
Therefore, the successive rate of discount is 15%.
