Question

The marked price of a floor spread is Rs 650. If the shopkeeper gives a discount of 8 p.c., what is its selling price?

Answer 1

Marked price of the floor spread = Rs 650
Discount percent = 8%
Discount = Marked Price × p.c. discount
= 650 × 8%
$=650\times \frac{8}{100}$
= Rs 52

Selling Price =Marked Price − Discount
= Rs 650 − Rs 52
= Rs 598
∴ The selling price of the floor spread is Rs 598.
