Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven:
The packet of ₹2,800.
Successive Discounts are avail as 45%, 25%.
Concept used:
If x%, y% discount avail, then
\(FV = {(100-x)(100-y) \over 100 × 100} × AV\)
Where AV is actual value and FV is final value after discounts of a product.
Calculation:
a customer has to pay for the packet of ₹2,800 = \( {(100-45)(100-25) \over 100 × 100} × 2800\)
=> \( {55×75 \over 100 } × 28\)
=> 1155
Hence, '₹1,155' is the correct answer.
Shortcut Trick
According to question, 80 unit → 2800
Then 33 unit → 2800/80 × 33 = 1155
