मनप्रीत दीवाली के अवसर पर अपने ग्राहकों को स्वेटर की बिक्री पर 12% और 8% की दो क्रमिक छूटें प्रदान करता हैं। मनप्रीत द्वारा प्रदान की गई समतुल्य एकल प्रतिशत छूट क्या है?
Detailed Solution & Logic
Correct Answer:
19.04%
Let the marked price be 100
First discount = 12%
Price after first discount = $100 \times (1 - \frac{12}{100}) $
=$ 100 \times 0.88 $= 88
Second discount = 8%
Price after second discount} = $ 88 \times (1 - \frac{8}{100})$
$ 88 \times 0.92 $ = 80.96
Net price after both discounts = 80.96
Equivalent single discount = 100 - 80.96 = 19.04%
Answer: 19.04%
