Let the MP be Rs.x.For the first dealer-SP. = (1-r1/100)*(1-r2/100)*MP= (1-15/100)*(1-5/100)*Rs.x= (17/20)*(19/20)*Rs.x= Rs.383x/400
For the second dealer-SP. = (1-r/100)*MP= (1-20/100)*Rs.x= Rs.4x/5
SP of 1st dealer >SP of second dealerRs.383/400 > Rs. 4x/5Difference of both the offers = Rs.383x/400- Rs.4x/5= Rs.83x/400
Ans.= The second offer is better for the customer
