Question

the sale price of 40 articles is equal to the total printed price of 32 articles. find the rate of discount

Answer 1

Sp of 40 articles = Mp of 32 articles

Let sp of 1 article be re 1

so SP of 40 articles = rs 40 = Mp of 32 articles

So we have Mp of 32 articles = Rs 40

Sp of 32 articles = Rs 32

Discount = MP - SP = 40 - 32 = 8

Discount % = 8/32 * 100 = 25% is the rate of discount

Answer 2

Hello,

The amount of the reduction is calculated.

40 - 32 = 8

( 8 / 40 ) * 100 = 20 %
