Answer 1

HERE IS YR CORRECT ANSWER

Answer 2

Given:-

• M.P ( Market price) = Rs. 800.
• S.P ( Selling price) = Rs. 640.

To find:-

• Discount percent.

Solution:-

We know that,

Discount % = Discount/M.P × 100

Discount = M.P - S.P

= 800 - 640

= 160

Discount = Rs. 160.

Put , M.P and discount in discount% formula,

$\implies \sf \: Discount\: Percent \: = \: \frac{160}{800} \times 100$

$\implies \sf \: Discount\: Percent \: = \frac{160}{8}$

$\implies \sf \: Discount \: Percent \: = 20$

Therefore,

Discount percent is 20%.
