Question

Kunal bought a shirt marked for rs 1500 in sale.There was 20%discount on each item and another 25% discount over and above the existing discount .How much did pay for the shirt

Answer 1

Cost of Shirt - Rs. 1500

Discount = 20%

So Discount amount is = 1500 x 20% = Rs. 300

The cost of shirt with 20% Discount = 1500 - 300 = Rs. 1200

Again discount 25% over and above existing discount

That is 25% of Rs 1200

So discount amount is = 1200 x 25% = Rs. 300

The cost of shirt with additional 25% discount is = 1200 - 300 = Rs. 900

So Kunal has to pay Rs. 900 for the shirt after both discount applied.

Thanks

Answer 2

according to the question, m. price is Rs 1500

kunal got discount of 20% first Therefore
1500×20/100
= 300
therefore he got discount of Rs 300
therefore discounted amount will be 1500-300
= 1200


Again he got discount of 25%
therefore
1200×25/100
=300





therefore last discounted amount is
1200-300
=900
