Solution
Given, video game available in store A and store B at rate = Rs. 750
Store B sells video game on sales offer = Rs. 600
Store A sells video game at discount = 25%
We need to find out at which store is the game least expensive.
⇒ Now, we know x% of `n = x/100 xx n`
⇒ Discount = `25/100 xx 750`
= `750/4`
= 187.5
So, the price of the video game at store A = 750 – 187.5 = 562.5
Hence, at store A the video game is less expensive.
