Question

Find the amount paid by a customer when he buys a watch priced at Rs.5400 available at a discount of 12%.

Sum

Solution

Given, M.P. of the watch = Rs.5400
Discount = 12%
`"S.P."/"M.P." = 1 - "discount"/(100)`

⇒ `"S.P."/(5400) = 1 - (12)/(100)`

⇒ S.P. = `(88)/(100)` x Rs.5400
= Rs.4752
∴ Amount paid by the customer for the watch = Rs.4752.
