Discount % is 12.5 %.
Marked Price of sofa set (MP) = Rs. 16000
Selling price of sofa set (SP) = Rs. 14000
We know that,
Discount = MP - SP
= 16000 - 14000
= 2000
Discount on sofa set = Rs. 2000
We know that,
Discount % = Discount/MP * 100
= 2000/16000 * 100
= 2/16 * 100
= 200/16
= 12.5 %
Therefore the discount % is 12.5 %.
