An article costs Rs. 2000 to a manufacturer who lists its price at Rs. 2500. He sells it to a trader at a discount of 5%. The trader gets a further discount of 5% for cash payment. Find the amount that the trader pays to the manufacturer and the profit percent that the manufacturer makes on the sale.
उत्तर
List price of the article = Rs.2500
C.P. of the article = Rs.2000
S.P. of the article at 5% discount
= Rs.2500 - 5% of Rs.2500
= Rs.2500 - `(5)/(100) xx "Rs."2500`
= Rs.2375
Since trader gets a 5% additional discount for cash payment,
so, amount paid by the trader
= Rs.2375 - 5% of Rs.2375
= Rs.2375 - `(5)/(100) xx "Rs."2375`
= Rs.2375 - Rs.118.75
= Rs.2256.25
Profit made by the manufacturer
= List price - S.P.
= Rs.2500 - Rs.2256.25
= Rs.243.75
So, profit%
= `"profit"/"C.P." xx 100`
= `(243.75)/(2000) xx 100`
= 12.18%
Hence, the amount that the trader pays is Rs.2256.25 and the profit% that the manufacturer makes on the sale is 12.18%.

After offering discount of 10% on marked price, a customer gets total discount of 17 rupees. To find the cost price for the customer, fill in the following boxes with appropriate numbers and complete the activity.
Suppose, marked price of the item = 100 rupees
Therefore, for customer that item costs `square` - `square` = 90 rupees
Hence, when the discount is `square` then the selling price is `square` rupees.
Suppose when the discount is `square` rupees, the selling price is x rupees.
∴ `x/square=square/square`
∴ x = `(squarexxsquare)/square`
∴ x = `square`
∴ the customer will get the item for 153 rupees.
