Answers
Answer:
Rs 150
Step-by-step explanation:
marked price=Rs 200
Discount 25%=25/100*200=Rs 50
Hence selling price=200-50
=Rs 150
The selling price of the book would be Rs.150
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
the marked price of the book = rs.200
discount= 25%
To find:
selling price
Solution:
We calculate the discount amount first
As we know discount is always calculated on the marked price of an item
So, the discount percentage is 25
i.e. 25% discount on 200
∴ 200 x 25/100
∴ 5000/100
= rs.50
Therefore the discount amount is Rs.50
The selling price of the book would exclude the discount amount
Thus, to find the selling price offered by the bookseller we subtract that discount amount
∴ The selling price of the book = marked price - discount amount
∴ The selling price of the book = 200- 150
∴ The selling price of the book = Rs. 150
The seller will offer the selling price of Rs.150 with a 25% discount on Rs.200
