A seller gives 4 toys free of cost on buying 14 toys. What percent does the customer get as a discount?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. %
Discount% = (Discount/cost price) × 100
Let the marked price of 1 article = 100
MP of 4 articles = 100 × 4 = 400
The actual amount paid if the discount is not given = MP of 18 articles = 1800
Discount % = (400/1800) × 100 = 22 2/9%
