Question

During a sale a shop offers a discount of 10% on the Marked price of the all items. What would a customer have to pay for a pair of jeans marked at 1450 and two shirts marked at 850 each

Answer 1

sale price of pair of jeans= 1450×2×90%
= 2900×90/100
=2610

sale price of two shirts=2×850×90%
= 1700×90/100
=1530

total amount to be paid:- 2610+1530
=4140

Answer 2

For a pair of jeans

Marked price =Rs.1450

Discount =10% of Rs.1450

                =10010×1450

                =Rs.145

∴ Sale price =1450−145

                      =Rs.1305

For two shirts

Marked price =(Rs.850)×2=Rs.1700

Discount =10% of Rs.1700

                =10010×1700

                =Rs.170

∴ Sale price =1700−170

                      =Rs.1530

Total sale price =1305+1530

                          =Rs.2835

Thus, the customer would have to pay Rs.2835
