Open in App
Solution

ANS: Marked price of the item = Rs.840

The S.P. of item = Rs.714

Discount given on the item = Rs.840 - Rs.714 = Rs 126

On Rs 840 discount given is Rs 126

On Rs 1 discount will be 126/840

On Rs 100 discount or discount % = (126/840)* 100 = 15%

Therefore, the discount is Rs 126 and the discount % = 15%
