Answer 2

The selling price is $3813

Given : The marked price of water cooler is $4650. There shopkeeper offers an off-season discount of 18% on it.

To find : The selling price.

Solution :

We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process. (our goal is to calculate the selling price)

Here, we will be using general percentage calculation method.

Now, the discount amount in the marked price :

= Marked price × Discount percentage

= $(4650 × 18%)

= $(4650 × 18/100)

= $837

Now, the selling price will be :

= Marked price - Discount amount

= $4650 - $837

= $3813

(This will be considered as the final result.)

Hence, the selling price is $3813
