TO FIND

Amount of discount

SOLUTION

We can simply solve the above problem as follows;

Let the discount price = x

Marked price = Rs 300

Discount% = 25%

We can calculate the amount of discount by using the above formula;

Discount % = (Discount/Marked price)× 100

Putting the values in the above formula we get;

25 = (Discount/300) × 100

(25/100) × 300 = Discount

0.25 × 300 = Discount

Discount = Rs 75

Hence, The answer is Rs 75
