Solution

The correct option is D: $11 \frac{1}{9} %$
Marked Price $= R s . 450$

Selling Price $= R s . 400$

Discount $= 450 - 400 = R s . 50$

Discount Percent $= \frac{D i s c o u n t}{M a r k e d P r i c e}$ $\times 100 %$

$= \frac{50}{450}$ $\times 100 %$

$= \frac{100}{9} %$

$= 11 \frac{1}{9}$ %
