Question

Find the rate of discount being given on a shirt whose selling price is $₹1092$ after deducting a discount of $₹208$ on its marked price. Hint: $MP=\left(SP\right)+\left(discount\right)$.

Answer 1

Given:
SP $=₹1092$

Discount $=₹208$

We know that

Market price $=$ SP $+$ Discount

$=1092+208$

$=₹1300$

$\therefore$ The Discount % $=\frac{Discount}{marketprice}\times 100$

$=\frac{208}{1300}\times 100$

$=16$
