Question

A table marked at $Rs15000$ is available for $Rs14400$. What is the discount $\%$?

• A. 4
• B. 10
• C. 40
• D. 60

Answer 1

The correct option is A $4$

From question,
Marked Price $=Rs.15000$
Selling Price $=Rs.14400$

We know that,
$\text{Discount percentage}=\frac{\text{Marked price - Selling price}}{\text{Marked price}}\times 100\%$

$=\frac{15000-14400}{15000}\times 100\%$

$=\frac{600}{15000}\times 100\%$

$=\frac{600}{150}\%$

$=\frac{60}{15}\%$

$=4\%$
