Question

Find the discount being given on the sweater whose price has been splashed down from Rs 975 to Rs 760.50 ?

Answer 1

mp = Rs 975
sp  = Rs 760.50
discount = mp - sp
                = 975 - 760.50
                = Rs214.50

so the discount was = Rs  214.50

Answer 2

discount = cost price - selling price
 discount = 975-760.50

discount % is cost price/discount *100
that is  975/760.50 * 100
