pls tell me by statement....​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given first discount is 20%

so, 20

------- × 24000 = Rs.4800

100

24000 - 4800 = 19200

After it came for Rs.17280

so, let the discount be 'x'

x

------- × 24000 = 24000 - 17280

100

=> x × 240 = 6720

=> x = 6720

------------

240

x = 28%
