Successive discounts of 20%, 10% and 5% are equal to a single discount of:
20%, 10% और 5% की क्रमिक छूट, किसकी एकल छूट के बराबर है:
Detailed Solution & Logic
31.6%
Successive discount formula:
Net discount = $a + b + c - \frac{ab}{100} - \frac{bc}{100} - \frac{ca}{100} + \frac{abc}{10000}$
Here,
$a=20,\ b=10,\ c=5$
$=20+10+5-\frac{20\times10}{100}-\frac{10\times5}{100}-\frac{20\times5}{100}+\frac{20\times10\times5}{10000}$
$=35-2-0.5-1+0.1$
$=31.6%$
$\therefore$ Correct Answer: 31.6% ✅
Extra Fact
Shortcut method: Multiply remaining percentages:
$80% \times 90% \times 95% = 68.4%$
Discount = $100 - 68.4 = 31.6%$
अतिरिक्त तथ्य
क्रमिक छूट में छूटों को सीधे जोड़ते नहीं हैं, क्योंकि हर अगली छूट नई कीमत पर लगती है।
