Question

The marked price of a gift item is ₹176 and sold it for ₹165. Find the discount percent.

• A. 7.24%
• B. 6.24%
• C. 6.25%
• D. 7.25%

Answer 1

The correct option is C 6.25%

Discount = Marked price − Sale price
= ₹176 −₹165
= ₹11

Discount % $=\frac{\text{Discount}}{\text{Marked price}}\times 100$
$=\frac{11}{176}\times 100=6.25\%$
