A shopkeeper gives 3 toys free of cost on buying 9 toys and all toys are of the same type. What is the discount percentage that a customer gets?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 25%.

Discount percentage = Free articles/Total articles × 100

Free articles = 3 toys

Total articles = 9 + 3 = 12 toys

Discount % = (3/12) × 100 

= 25%
