M.P=Rs. 900Two successive discount=8% and 8%

M.P=Rs. 900Two successive discount=8% and 8%S.P after first discount=900−8%of900

M.P=Rs. 900Two successive discount=8% and 8%S.P after first discount=900−8%of900⇒900−1008×900

M.P=Rs. 900Two successive discount=8% and 8%S.P after first discount=900−8%of900⇒900−1008×900⇒900−72=Rs.828

M.P=Rs. 900Two successive discount=8% and 8%S.P after first discount=900−8%of900⇒900−1008×900⇒900−72=Rs.828S.P after second discount =828−8%  of  828

M.P=Rs. 900Two successive discount=8% and 8%S.P after first discount=900−8%of900⇒900−1008×900⇒900−72=Rs.828S.P after second discount =828−8%  of  828⇒828−1008×828

M.P=Rs. 900Two successive discount=8% and 8%S.P after first discount=900−8%of900⇒900−1008×900⇒900−72=Rs.828S.P after second discount =828−8%  of  828⇒828−1008×828⇒828−66.24=761.76

M.P=Rs. 900Two successive discount=8% and 8%S.P after first discount=900−8%of900⇒900−1008×900⇒900−72=Rs.828S.P after second discount =828−8%  of  828⇒828−1008×828⇒828−66.24=761.76A single discount=16%S.P after single discount 900−16% of 900

M.P=Rs. 900Two successive discount=8% and 8%S.P after first discount=900−8%of900⇒900−1008×900⇒900−72=Rs.828S.P after second discount =828−8%  of  828⇒828−1008×828⇒828−66.24=761.76A single discount=16%S.P after single discount 900−16% of 900⇒900−10016×900

M.P=Rs. 900Two successive discount=8% and 8%S.P after first discount=900−8%of900⇒900−1008×900⇒900−72=Rs.828S.P after second discount =828−8%  of  828⇒828−1008×828⇒828−66.24=761.76A single discount=16%S.P after single discount 900−16% of 900⇒900−10016×900⇒900−144=756
