Marked price of an article is Rs. 4000. After giving two successive discounts of 25 percent and A percent, the article is sold for Rs. 2400. What is the value of A?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Marked price = ₹4000
Price after 25% discount = 75/100 × 4000 = ₹3000
Price after A% discount on ₹3000 = ₹2400
Discount = 3000 – 2400 = ₹600
A = 600/3000 × 100 = 20%
