Question

The cost of a mobile phone is ₹6000. After discount, it costs ₹ 4800. What is the percent decrease in the price the phone?​

Answer 1

Here we are given the cost price and selling price of a mobile phone

Cost price = ₹6000

Selling price = ₹ 4800

We have to find the discount percentage

Discount = 6000 - 4800

               = 1200

Discount% = ( discount / cost price ) × 100

                  = ( 1200 / 6000 ) × 100

                  = 20

Hence, the discount percentage will be 20 %
