Question

Hari bought 4 chairs and 3 tables for a sum of RS. 1260 after a 10% discount on total price. If he had bought each chair for a discount of 10% and each table for a discount of 20%, he would have saved RS.212 from the total price. What is the original price of a chair?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Chair price :12800

First discount offered : 20% i.e 2560

Now the price is 12800–2560=10240

Customer gets successive discount, let's assume it x%

Now 10240-(10240*x%) =9216

1024000–10240x=921600

10240x=102400

X=10

You can also cross check the answer I. E

On 12800 after20% discount is 10240

Again on this 10%discount is 9216…
