Question

During a festival season, an electric gadget marked at ₹ 5,000 is offered on sale at ₹ 4,250 after giving a certain discount. If discount percentage is reduced by 5%, at what price the electric gadget will be available to customers?

• A. ₹ 5,000
• B. ₹ 4,750
• C. ₹ 4,000
• D. ₹ 4,500

Answer 1

Answer:

D. ₹ 4,500

The initial discount = 5000 - 4250 = ₹ 750 The discount percentage = (750/5000) × 100 = 15% The final discount = 15 - 5 = 10% The final selling price = (100 - 10)/100 × 5000 = 4500
