SSC MTS - 22/10/2024 - (4:00 PM - 5:30 PM) • Quantitative Aptitude • Q19

A shopkeeper gives 4 shirts free on buying 6 shirts. Find the percentage of discount given to the customers?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e 40%.

Total shirts received = 6 (paid) + 4 (free) = 10 shirts

Shirts paid for = 6

So, effective price paid per shirt = 6/10 = 0.6 of original price

That means the customer gets a 40% discount
