Question

an article marked 800 is sold for 704 find the discount and discount percent
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

M.P. = Rs 800

S.P. = Rs 704

Therefore, discount = M.P. - S.P.

= Rs (800-704)

= Rs 96 [Ans.]

$and \: discount\% = \frac{discount}{m.p.} \times 100$

$= \frac{96}{800} \times 100$

$= \frac{3}{25} \times 100$

$= 3 \times 4$

$= 12 \%$
