Answer 2

Given:

• Marked price of article = ₹1600
• Discount given = 15%

To Find:

• Selling price of article?

Understanding what to do:

We have given that, there is any article which is marked ₹1600 for selling. Any seller given a discount of 15% as a offer of diwali. Now asking that after giving discount, what will be the selling price of article. To solve this problem, we need to keep in mind that we will calculate discount on Marked price.

Solution:

Marked price = ₹1600

discount = 15%

∴ Discount given = 15% of 1600

→ Discount given = $\small{\sf{15\% \times 1600}}$

$\implies\small{\sf{\frac{15}{100}×1600}}$

$\implies\small{\sf{15×16}}$

$\implies\small{\sf{240}}$

So,

• Discount given on the article is ₹240

∴ Selling price of article = 1600 - 240 = 1360

Therefore,

• $\large{\boxed{\bf{\green{Selling~price~=~₹1360}}}}$
