Answer:

Option (3) 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the second discount be r%

After offering the first discount, the price of the article

=8400-8400\times\frac{15}{100}

=8400-84\times 15

=8400-1260

=7140

After offering the second discount, the price is 6426

Therefore,

7140-7140\times\frac{r}{100}=6426

\implies 714\times\frac{r}{10}=714

\implies r=10

Therefore, the second discount was 10%

Hope this helps.
