Question

The price of a saree after discount is ₹8,000. If the actual cost of the saree was ₹10,000, find the discount percentage?

• A. 10
• B. 20
• C. 30
• D. 40

Answer 1

The correct option is B 20

Discounted price of saree = ₹8,000
Actual cost of saree = ₹10,000
Discount offered = 10,000 - 8,000 = ₹2,000
Discount percent = $\frac{2,000}{10,000}\times 100$
= 20%
