Solution

The correct option is D $47$
SP of jewellery include Rs $100$ making charges = $1000$
Where cost of jewellery = Rs $900$
After $90 %$ discount, $10 %$ of making charge = Rs $100$
Let making charge be = $x$
$\frac{10 x}{100} = 100$
$x = 1000$
Total CP of jewellery = $1000 + 900 = R s 1900$
Overall discount = $\frac{900}{1900} \times 100 = 47 %$ approx
