Answer:

  • Discount percent is 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

  • An item was sold for Rs. 300.
  • Getting a discount of Rs. 100.

To Find:

  • What is the discount percent?

First finding the marked price:

Formula: Marked price = Selling price + Discount

  • Marked price = Rs (300 + 100)
  • Marked price = Rs 400

Now finding the discount percent:

Formula: Discount percent = (Discount × 100)/(Marked price) %

  • Discount percent = (100 × 100)/(400) %
  • Discount percent = (10000)/(400) %
  • Discount percent = 25 %

Given

  • Selling price of an item = Rs 300 /-
  • Discount offered = Rs 100 /-

To find

  • Discount percent

Solution

  • M.P = S.P + D

Where :-

  • M.P = Marked price
  • S.P = Selling price
  • D = Discount

Substituting , we get :-

  • M.P = 300 + 100
  • M.P = 400

Hence, the marked price is Rs 400 /-

Now, let's find the discount percentage with the formula :-

  • D % = Discount × 100 / Marked price
  • D % = 100 × 100 / 400
  • D % = 10000 / 400
  • D % = 25

Hence, the discount percent is 25 %
