Catch Cola 300 ML with MRP Rs 20 is displayed in a Hyper Market with an Offer 'BUY 2 GET 1 FREE'. With this offer, the Hyper Market is giving what per cent discount?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e 33.33%.

Given that

MRP of Catch =  ₹20

Offer get = ‘BUY 2 GET 1 FREE’

M.P. = S.P. + Discount

Discount % = Discount/M.P. × 100

Total MRP = 3x

so, the discount given = x

Hence, Discount % = x/3x × 100 = 100/3 = 33.33 %
