Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven:
Marked price of a table lamp = ₹2165
Selling price during the festive season = ₹1710.35
Formula used:
Percentage Discount = ((Marked Price - Selling Price))/(Marked Price) × 100
Calculations:
Discount = 2165 - 1710.35
⇒ Discount = 454.65
Percentage Discount = (454.65)/(2165) × 100
⇒ Percentage Discount = 0.21 × 100
⇒ Percentage Discount = 21%
∴ The percentage discount offered is 21%.
