Question

Find the rate of discount being given on a ceiling fan whose selling price is 1175 after allowing a discount of 75 on its marked price

Answer 1

Answer:

Selling price = 1175

Discount = 75

Marked price = 1175+75 = 1250

Discount percent = discount / marked price *100

Therefore 75/1250 *100 = 6 % .

Answer 2

$\maltese \: {\underline {\overline {\green{ \boxed{ \mathfrak{Given \: ;\: }}}}}}$

• Discount = ₹310
• Selling price = ₹1550

• Discount %

$\maltese \: {\underline {\overline {\blue{ \boxed{ \mathfrak{Solution \: ; \: }}}}}}$

Let C.P of fan be x.

We know that :-

${ \mathsf{ \underline{ \underline{ \overline{ \overline {\: \\ S.P \: = \: C.P \: - \: Discount \: }}}}}}$

So,

$\implies \rm \: \: 1550 = x \: - 310$

$\implies \rm \: \: 1550 \: + 310 = x$

$\implies \: \rm \: 1860 = x$

Also, we know that :-

${ \underline {\underline{ \overline {\overline{ \sf{Discount \: \% \: = \frac{Discount}{ C.P} × 100}}}}}}$

So,

$\implies \rm \ \frac{310}{1860} \times 100$

$\implies \rm \ \frac{1550}{93}$

$\implies \rm \: 16.666 \: \%$

• Therefore :

Discount % = 16.67 % (approx)

Formulae Used ;

${ \mathsf{ \underline{ \underline{ \overline{ \overline {\: \\ S.P \: = \: C.P \: - \: Discount \: }}}}}}$

${ \underline {\underline{ \overline {\overline{ \sf{Discount \: \% \: = \frac{Discount}{ C.P} × 100}}}}}}$
