उत्तर

Marked price of the mixer = ₹ 2,300

Selling price of the mixer = ₹ 1,955

∴ Discount = Marked price − Selling price

= ₹ 2,300 − ₹ 1,955

= ₹ 345

On marked price of ₹ 2,300, the discount is ₹ 345.

Let the discount be ₹ x.

Now, if the marked price is ₹ 100, then the discount is ₹ x.

∴ \[\frac{x}{100} = \frac{345}{2300}\]

⇒ \[x = \frac{345}{2300} \times 100\]

= 15

Thus, the percentage of discount offered to the customer is 15%.
