Living on his own Sanjay is looking for one bedroom apartment for rent. At Neelgiri apartment, rent for the first two months is 20% off. The one bedroom rate at Neelgiri is Rs.6000 per month. At Savana apartment, the first month is 50% off. The one bedroom rate at Savana apartment is 7000 per month. Which apartment will be cheaper for the first two months? By how much?

Answer 1

The one bedroom rate al Neelgiri = Rs. 6000 per month
Also, 20 % off for first two months,
$\because$ Rent for first 2 months = $2\times (6000-\frac{20}{100}\times 6000)$ = $2\times 4800=Rs.9600$
In comparison of Savana appartments, it offers 50 % off for first month, where the rent for bedroom Is Rs. 7000 per month = $7000-\frac{50}{100}\times 7000$
= 7000 - 3500 = Rs. 3500
But rent for two months in Savana appartment = Rs. 3500 + Rs. 7000 = Rs. 10500
Hence, Neelgiri appartment Will be cheaper by = Rs. 10500 - Rs. 9600 =Rs. 900
