Question

A shopkeeper offers 2.5% discount on cash purchases. What cash amount would Rohan pay for a cycle, the marked price of which is Rs. 650?

• A. Rs. 633.25
• B. Rs. 633.75
• C. Rs. 635
• D. Rs.637

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Rs. 633.75

Marked price of bicycle = Rs. 650

Discount offers = 2.5 %

S.P. = $97\frac{1}{2}\%$ of Rs. 650

= Rs. $\left(\frac{195}{2}\times \frac{1}{100}\times 650\right)$

= Rs. 633.75.
