Marked price = Rs 360
Selling price = Rs 306
Discount = 360 - 306
= Rs 54
Discount percent = 54 × 100 / 360
= 6 × 100 / 40
= 3 × 5
= 15 %
Selling price = Rs 306
Discount = 360 - 306
= Rs 54
Discount percent = 54 × 100 / 360
= 6 × 100 / 40
= 3 × 5
= 15 %

Answer:
15%
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that the book has a marked price of 360 Rs. and the shop keeper has sold it for 306 Rs.
So, the shop keeper gives a discount of (Marked price-Selling price)= (360-306) Rs.
=54 Rs.
We have to calculate the percentage of discount the shop keeper has given before selling the book.
Hence, the percentage of discount =(Discount/ Marked price)×100%
=(54/360)×100%
= 15% (Answer)
