Question

the marked price of an article is Rs 1600 if it is sold for Rs 1472 what is the discount rate​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Marked price = 1600,

Selling price = 1472,

Discount rate = ?.

To find discount rate we should first find discount amount.

Discount = marked price - Selling price

               = 1600-1472

               =128

If doscount rate = x then

                          x/100 = discount given/ marked price

                         therefore x = 100 * 128/1600

                          x = 8%                      

Therefore your answer is 8%.
