Question

If a company sells a car with a marked price of Rs. 2,72,000 and gives a discount of 4% on Rs. 2,00,000 and 2.5% on the remaining amount of Rs. 72,000, then the actual price charged by the company for the car is:

• A. Rs. 2,50,000
• B. Rs. 2,55,000
• C. Rs. 2,60,100
• D. Rs. 2,62,200
• E. Rs.2,62,000

Answer 1

The correct option is D

Rs. 2,62,200

M.P. = Rs. 272000.

Discount = Rs. [(4% of 200000) + (2.5% of 72000)] = Rs. (8000 + 1800) = Rs. 9800.

$\therefore$ Actutal price = Rs. (272000 - 9800) = Rs. 262200.
