Answer 2

Given:

The list price of a frock is 220. A discount of 20% is announced on sales.

To find:

The amount of discount on the frock and its sale price.

Solution:

The amount of discount on the frock is 44 Rs. and its sale price is 176 Rs.

To answer this question, we will follow the following steps:

As given in the question, we have,

The list price of the frock = 220 Rs.

The discount that is given on the sale of the frock = 20%.

So,

The amount of discount given on the frock

$= list \: price \: \times \: discount \: percent$

$= 220 \times 20\%$

$= \frac{220 \times 20}{100}$

$= 44 \: rs$

Now,

The sale price of the frock

$= list \: price - discount$

$= 220 - 44$

$= 176 \: rs.$

Hence, the amount of discount on the frock is 44 Rs. and its sale price is 176 Rs.
