Answer 2

Answer:

24%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the marked price = Rs 100

After discount of 20%, the price = 100 - 20% of 100 = 100 - $\frac{20}{100}$ × 100 = 100 - 20 = 80

After a further discount of 5%, price = 80−5% of 80 = 80 − $\frac{5}{100}$ ×80 = 80−4 = Rs76

Final Selling = Rs76

Total Discount = 100 − 76 = Rs24

Thus, discount % =   $\frac{24}{100}$  ×100 = 24%
