Question

During sale, Raghav bought a notebook marked for ₹44 at 25% discount and a pen marked for ₹15 at 80% discount. How much (in ₹) did he save due to sale?

• A. 21
• B. 20
• C. 25
• D. 23

Answer 1

Answer:

D. 23

1. Calculate the discount on the notebook:

• Marked price of notebook = ₹44

• Discount percentage = 25%

• Discount amount = 25% of ₹44 = (25/100) * ₹44 = ₹11

2. Calculate the discount on the pen:

• Marked price of pen = ₹15

• Discount percentage = 80%

• Discount amount = 80% of ₹15 = (80/100) * ₹15 = ₹12

3. Calculate the total savings:

• Total savings = Discount on notebook + Discount on pen

• Total savings = ₹11 + ₹12 = ₹23

Therefore, Raghav saved ₹23 due to the sale.
