Question

what single discount will be equivalent to two successive discount of 8% and 5%​

Answer 1

Answer:12.6%

Step-by-step explanation: consider the price to be 100

then applying 8% discount, the discounted value would become 92

100*8/100= 8

100-8= 92

then applying 5% discount on 92

5*92/100= 4.6

92-4.6= 87.4

so now final discounted price is 87.4 from 100

100- 87.4= 12.6

x% of 100=12.6

x=12.6
