Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

300/100×100=300it means 32.530000A%

Answer 2

Given :-

• Selling Price (S.P) = Rs 300
• Discount = Rs 100

To Find :-

• Discount %

Solution :-

❏ For finding the Discount% we should know the Marked Price also. So, firstly we will find the Marked Price then we will find the Discount%

⟹ Selling Price = Marked Price - Discount

⟹ 300 = Marked Price - 100

⟹ 300 + 100 = Marked Price

⟹ Rs 400 = Marked Price ( M.P)

Now,

➟ Discount% = Discount / M.P × 100

➟ Discount% = 100 / 400 × 100

➟ Discount% = 100 / 4

➟ Discount% = 25%

Thus Discount% = 25%
