Find a single discount (as a percent) equivalent to following successive discounts:
20% and 12%

बेरीज

उत्तर

Successive discount = 20% and 12%

Let M.P. = ₹100

First discount = 20%

Second discount = 12%

∴ S.P.`=("M.P."(100-"Discount%"))/100`

`=(100xx(100-20)(100-12))/(100xx100)`

`=(100xx80xx88)/(100xx100)=352/5`

∴ Total discount on ₹100 = `100-352/5`

`=(500-352)/5=₹148/5`

∴ Single discount`=148/5%`

`=29 3/5%`
