A shopkeeper charges Rs.1.50 to photocopy a sheet of paper and a discount of 5.5% is given on all photocopies done after 400 sheets. How much will it cost to photocopy 800 sheets of paper?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. Rs.1,167.
Given that
A shopkeeper charges Rs.1.50 to photocopy a sheet of paper
The charges of 400 sheets of paper = 400 * 1.5 = 600 Rs
The cost after giving discounts of 5.5% for the next 400 pages
= 600 * 94.5/100 = 567
Hence, The cost to photocopy 800 sheets of paper = 600 + 567 = 1167 Rs
