Question

Concession card holders pay ₹ 120 for a train ticket. Full fare is ₹ 230. What is the percentage of discount for concession card holders?

Sum

Solution

Train ticket fare = ₹ 230

Ticket fare on concession = ₹ 120

Discount = Ticket fare – concession fare

= 230 – 120

= ₹ 110

Percentage of discount = `"Discount"/"Original rate" xx 100%`

= `110/230 xx 100`

= 47.826%

= 47.83%

Percentage of discount = 47.83%
