A household appliances company offers two successive discounts of 20% and 35% on the sale of a food processor. What is the final sale price (in Rs, to the nearest rupee) of a food processor costing Rs 4580?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 2382
Given:
Cost price = Rs 4580
Two successive discounts of 20% and 35%
Calculations:
Successive discounts = 20 + 35 - (20 × 35)/100 = 48%
According to the questions:
Selling price = 4580 × (100 - 48)/100
Selling price = 4580 × 0.52 = 2381.6 2382
