He gives a discount of 7% on the total price . Calculate the actual price changed by Person A and Person B for the cars

Answer 1

Answer:

PERSON A sells a car priced at ₹36,000 .

He gives a discount of 8% on the first ₹20,000

So discount amount = 20000× 8/100 = ₹ 1600

Also 5% on remaining ₹16,000

Discount amount = 16000× 5/100 =₹ 800

So total discount = ₹1600+₹800=₹2400

Actual price for person A

= ₹36000 - ₹ 2400 = ₹33600

PERSON B sells a car priced at ₹36,000 .

sells a car priced at ₹36,000 . He gives a discount of 7%

So discount amount = 36000× 7/100 = ₹ 2520

So actual price for Person B

=₹36000 - ₹2520

= ₹33480
