If you are buying one jacket at ₹2,500 and, buying two similar jackets at ₹4,500, then find the discount percentage. (Marked price of one jacket is ₹2500)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e.10 Percent.

The marked price of the two jackets = 2 × 2500 = 5000

Cost price of two jackets = 4500

Discount = (Marked price - Cost price)/Marked price × 100

= (5000 - 4500)/5000 × 100

= 10%
