Question

If market price of a article is $Rs.1900$, and selling price is $Rs.1750$, then find the discount percentage.

• A. $9.78\%$
• B. $5.09\%$
• C. $6.89\%$
• D. $7.89\%$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $7.89\%$

Given,

Marked price $=Rs.1900$

Selling price $=Rs.1750$

$Discount\%=\frac{MarkedPrice-SellingPrice}{Markedprice}\times 100\%$

$\Rightarrow Discount\%=\frac{1900-1750}{1900}\times 100\%$

$\Rightarrow Discount\%=\frac{150}{1900}\times 100\%$

$\Rightarrow Discount\%=7.89$ %
