उत्तर

Given, price of CD = 120

Also, discount is 25% of orginal price.

We need to find out selling price.

⇒ Now, we know x% of `n = x/100 xx n`

⇒ 25% discount on Rs. 120 = `25/100 xx 120`

= `120/4`

= Rs. 30

∴ Discount = Rs. 30

⇒ Now, Selling price after discount = Original cost price – Discount

⇒ Selling price after discount = 120 – 30 = Rs. 90

Hence, the selling price is Rs. 90
