Question

Neelima went to shop to buy a dress marked price of the dress is 1000 shop owner gave a discount of 20% and then 5%. find the single discount equivalent to these two successive discounts?
give ur answer with explanation​

Answer 1

MP₁ = 1000

D₁ = 1000 x 20 / 100 = 200

MP₂ = 1000-200 = 800

D₂ = 800 x 5 / 100 = 40

SP = 800 - 40 = 760

Single Equivalent Discount

= (1000-760) / 1000 x 100%

= 24% Discount
