Question

Alex brought a shirt with a marked price of ₹1500 for ₹1350. What is the percentage of discount given to Alex ?

• A. 5%
• B. 15%
• C. 10%
• D. 20%

Answer 1

The correct option is B 15%

Marked price of shirt = ₹1500
Amount paid by Alex = ₹1350
Discount given to Alex = ₹(1500-1350) = ₹150.

Let the discount percent be x%.

So,$\frac{x}{100}\times MarkedPrice=DiscountedAmount\frac{x}{100}\times 1500=150x=\frac{150\times 100}{1500}x=10\%$
