Question

The marked price of a shirt is 1500. if it is available at a discount of 20%, find the amount of discount and the sale price​

Answer 1

Answer:

Discount = 300

Sale Price = 1200

Step-by-step explanation:

Marked price of the shirt = 1500

Discount = 20%

$discount \: percent \: = \frac{disount}{mp} \times 100 \\ = \frac{mp - sp}{mp} \times 100$

Selling Price = 1200

Discount = mp - sp = 300

(or)

20% loss

$disount = 1500 \times \frac{20}{100} = 300$

Discount = 300

SP = CP - discount = 1500 - 300 = 1200

SP = 1200

Answer 2

Cost price = ₹1500

Discount = 20 %

Therefore, discount in amount = 20 % of ₹1500

= 20/100 of ₹1500

= ₹300

Selling price = Cost price - Discount

= ₹1500 - ₹300

= ₹1200
