Question

Find the single discount equilavent to two successive discounts of 20%and10%

Answer 1

Answer:

28%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Marked Price be ₹100.

First discount = 20% = 20/100 × ₹100 = ₹20

Price after first discount = ₹100 - ₹20 = ₹80

Second discount = 10% = 10/100 × ₹80 = ₹8

Price after second discount = ₹80 - ₹8 = ₹72

Single discount = ₹100 - ₹72 = ₹28 = 28%
