⚡Hey mate⚡

✨Here is your answer✨

Discount on a bill due 9 months hence at 16 % per annum is Rs 189

It means that 189 rupees is for 9 month then 1 month is

9 month = 189

1 month = 189 ÷ 9

1 month = 21

12 months (1 year) = 21 × 12

12 months = 252


Now percent is 16 % per annum

It means that 16 % is equal to 252 rupees

If 16 % is equal to the 252 rupees then 100 % is

16 % = 252

1 % = 252 ÷ 16

1 % = 15.75

100 % = 15.75 × 100

100 % = 1575



Your answer is 15.75 rupees.
