Question

Tufail buys some items from a store. A special discount of 15 percent offered on food items and 20 percent on other items. If he purchases food worth Rs 1250 and other items worth Rs 750, find the amount discount and sale price of each separately

Answer 1

Answer:

• discount on food = 15%
• discount on other = 20%

Tifail purchses food = ₹1250

discount on food = 1250×15/100= ₹187.5

payable amount on food = 1250-187.5 =₹1062.5

payable amount on food = 1250-187.5 =₹1062.5 sell price = 1250 + 187.5 = ₹1437.5

Tifali buys other items = ₹750

discount = 750×20/100 = ₹150

amount payable = 750- 150 = ₹600

sell price = 750 +150= ₹900.
