A book is listed at Rs. 300, with a discount of 20 percent. What additional discount must be offered to bring the selling price to Rs. 216?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 10 percent
SP after 20% discount = 300(80/100) = Rs. 240
New discount to be offered = (240 - 216) = Rs. 24
% discount = 24(100)/240 = 10%
