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. $2,62,200$

Answer 1

The correct option is D Rs. $2,62,200$

Let Marked Price be $M.P.$

$\Rightarrow$ $M.P.=$Rs. $2,72,000$

$\Rightarrow$ Discount $=$Rs. $\left[\right(5\%of2,00,000)+(2.5\%of72,000\left)\right]$

$\Rightarrow$ Discount$=$Rs. $(8000+1800)=$ Rs. $9,800$

$\therefore$ Actual Price $=$Rs $.2,72,000-$Rs. $9,800=$Rs. $2,62,200$
