Question

The selling price of a pair of shoes marked at $\text{Rs.}750$ and sold at a discount of $15\%$ is

• A. $\text{Rs.}637.50$
• B. $\text{Rs.}682.45$
• C. $\text{Rs.}690$
• D. $\text{Rs.}715$

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

$\text{Rs.}637.50$

Cost Price $=\text{Rs.}750$

Discount is equal to $15\%$,

$\text{Discount}=\frac{15}{100}\times 750$

$=\text{Rs.}112.5$

Therefore,

Selling price $=$ Cost price $-$ Discount

$=\text{Rs.}750-\text{Rs.}112.5$

$=\text{Rs.}637.5$
