Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of one packet of coffee is Rs240.
The cost of reduction by first shopkeeper is,
240×
5
1
=48
240−48=Rs192
The cost of reduction by second shopkeeper is,
240×
10
1
=24
240−24=Rs216
As the decreased amount of first shopkeeper is less than the second shopkeeper, so, the offer of first shopkeeper is better.
The difference between both the offers is 216−192=Rs24
Therefore, the price at which the coffee is sold is Rs24.
