Question

cash purchase rupees 160000 at 10% and 5% CB what is the amount of net purchase​

Answer 1

Answer:

1,36,800

Explanation:

Given -

Cash purchase = 1,60,000

CB (Cash Back) = 10% and 5%

To find -

The net purchase

Solution -

Cash back = 10% and 5%

it means first 10% of amount then 5% of remaining amount

so

Net purchase= money after second cashback

money after first cash back = Total money - Cash back

= 1,60,000 - 10%

= 1,60,000 - (160000×10%)

= 1,60,000 - (160000×10/100)

= 1,60,000 - (1600000/100)

= 1,60,000 - 16,000

= 1,44,000

Money after second cashback (total net purchase) = money after first cash back - second cash back

= 1,44,000 - 5%

= 1,44,000 - (144000×5%)

= 1,44,000 - (144000×5/100)

= 1,44,000 - (5×144000/100)

= 1,44,000 - (5×1440)

= 1,44,000 - 7,200

= 1,36,800

Hance net purchase = 1,36,800.

remember :- never add both discount and solve them. You should solve first discount after that the second one.

hope it helps.
