Question

Find the amount paid by a customer when he buys a watch priced at Rs. 5400 available at a discount of 12%.

Answer 1

M.P. = Rs.5400, discount = 12%
To find the amount paid by the customer, that is, the S.P.
S.P. = `(1 - "d"/100)` of M.P.

⇒ S.P. = `(1 - 12/100) xx 5400`

⇒ S.P. = `(88)/(100) xx 5400`
⇒ S.P. = Rs.4752
Hence, the amount paid by the customer is Rs.4752.
