प्रश्न

Find the single discount equivalent to a series discount of 10%, 20%, and 15%.

बेरीज

उत्तर

Let the marked price be ₹ 100

After 1st discount the price = 100`(1 - 10/100)`

= 90

After 2nd discount the price = 90`(1 - 20/100)`

= 72

After 3rd discount the price = 72`(1 - 15/100)`

= `72 xx 85/100`

= 61.2

∴ The selling price after 3 discounts is ₹ 61.2.

∴ Single equivalent discount

= marked price – selling price

= 100 – 61.2

= ₹ 38.8

∴ The single equivalent discount is ₹ 38.8 on ₹ 100.

i.e. The single equivalent discount is 38.8%.
