Question

The price of an article is reduced by 15% in a discount sale. If the original price is 200, find the reduced price.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Chemistry is the scientific discipline involved with elements and compounds composed of atoms, molecules and ions: their composition, structure, properties, behavior and the changes they undergo during a reaction with other substances.

Answer 2

The reduced price is Rs. 170.

Given - Reduced percentage and original price

Find - Reduced price

Solution - To calculate the reduced price, we will calculate the discount and then subtract it form original price.

So, discount = 200*15/100

Performing multiplication and division. Also, cancelling common zeroes in numerator and denominator.

Discount = Rs. 30

Now, finding the reduced price = 200 - 30

Performing subtraction

Reduced price = 170

Hence, the reduced price to be paid for the article is Rs. 170.
