Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

if MP of a box is rupees 10 and discount of 10% is allowed then what should be the sale price

Answer 2

Given:

The marked price of a box is Rs 10 and a discount of 10% is allowed.

To find:

The sale price.

Solution:

As given,

we have,

The marked price or M.P. of a box = 10 Rs.

The discount percentage allowed on a box = 10%

So, the discount is given by:

$= discount ℅ \times M.P.$

$= \frac{10}{100} \times M.P.$

$= \frac{10}{100} \times 10$

$= 1 \: Rs.$

So,

The sale price

$= marked \: price \: - discount$

$= 10 - 1$

$= 9 \: Rs.$

Hence, the sale price is b. Rs 9.
