Answer 1

Answer:

hello dear your answer is 28%

Answer 2

Given:

Price of product=Rs.10,800

Discount=10%

To find:

The equivalent discount of two successive discounts of 10%

Solution:

The equivalent discount percentage for two successive discounts of 10% is 19%.

We can find the discount by following the given steps-

We know that the equivalent discount can be calculated by calculating the two successive discounts on the given price.

The discount percentage of two successive discounts=10%

The price of the product=Rs.10,800

We know that if the two successive discounts are X% and Y%, the equivalent discount percentage=(X+Y-XY/100)

Here, both X and Y are equal to 10%.

So on putting the values, we get

The equivalent discount percentage=(10+10-10×10/100)

=10+10-100/100

=20-1

=19%

The equivalent discount on the product is 19% of 10,800.

Therefore, the equivalent discount percentage for two successive discounts of 10% is 19%.
