Question

an item is marked at 1540 is sold for 1400 what is discount and discount percent

Answer 1

marked price = 1540 rs
selling price = 1400 rs

therefore , discount = marked price - selling price
=> discount = 1540-1400 => rs 140

discount % = discount/marked price × 100
=> discount % = 140/1540 × 100
=> discount % = 1/11 × 100 => 100/11 => 9.09 %


hope this helps
