Bipin offers a discount scheme that on buying 7 notebooks, get 3 for free. What will be the sale price (in ₹) of a notebook with a marked price ₹185, if the equivalent percentage discount is applied?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 129.50 

Marked price of one notebook = ₹185

Buying 7, get 3 free ⇒ pay for 7 to get 10

Effective price per notebook = (7 ÷ 10) × 185 = 0.7 × 185 = ₹129.50
