Solution
Marked price (M.P.) of a car = Rs. 50000
Discount at the rate of 5% on first
Rs. 20000 = Rs. `(20000 xx 5)/100` = Rs. 1000
Discount at the rate of 2% on remaining
Rs. 30000 = Rs. `(30000 xx 2)/100` = Rs. 600
(i) ∴ Total discount = Rs. 1000 + Rs. 600
= Rs. 1600
(ii) Price charged by the dealer
= Rs. 50000 - Rs. 1600 = Rs. 48400
