A customer could not decide between
A customer could not decide between a discount of 40% or two successive discounts of 25% and 15% to buy a certain article. What is the difference between both the discounts?
एक ग्राहक किसी विशेष वस्तु को खरीदने के लिए 40% की छूट या 25% और 15% की दो क्रमिक छूटों के बीच निर्णय नहीं ले पा रहा हैं दोनों छूटों के बीच कितना अंतर है?
Detailed Solution & Logic
3.75%
Let MP = 100
Single discount = 40%
Successive discount = 25 + 15 - $\dfrac{25 \times 15}{100} $= 36.25%
Difference = 40 - 36.25 = 3.75%
Answer = 3.75%
