Question

The printed price of a book is RS.150. And discount is 15%. Find the actual amount to be paid.

Answer 1

$<b><i><u>Answer :</u>$

The printed price of a book = Rs. 150

Discount = 15%

= 15% of 150

$\dfrac{15}{100}×150$

= 22.5

$\textsf{\large{The actual amount to pay = printed price of a book – discount}}$

= 150-22.5

= $\bf{\boxed{Rs. 127.50}}$

∴ $<u>$The actual amount to be paid is Rs. 127.50

Answer 2

The Selling Price is Rs 127.5.

How do you find SP with discount and CP?

• Gain = (S.P.) - (C.P.)
• Loss = (C.P.) - (S.P.)
• Loss or gain is always reckoned on C.P.
• Gain Percentage: (Gain %) Gain % = Gain x 100. C.P.
• Loss Percentage: (Loss %) Loss % = Loss x 100. C.P.
• Selling Price: (S.P.) SP = (100 + Gain %) x C.P.
• Selling Price: (S.P.) SP = (100 - Loss %) x C.P.
• Cost Price: (C.P.) C.P. = 100.

What is Profit Loss & discount?

• Profit and Loss formula is used in mathematics to determine the price of a commodity in the market and understand how profitable a business is.
• Every product has a cost price and a selling price.
• Based on the values of these prices, we can calculate the profit gained or the loss incurred for a particular product.

According to the question:

Marked Price of the book = Rs 150.

Discount on the book = 15%.

Selling Price = Marked Price – Discount.

$=150-\frac{15}{100} \times 150$.

=150-22.5

= 127.5.

Therefore, the selling price is Rs 127.5.

Hence, The Selling Price is Rs 127.5.
