Ramesh purchased some items from a dealer on 19 November 2019. The bill generated was for ₹5,480. He had also purchased some items on 10 November 2019 having the bill value of ₹9,800. He cleared both bills this time and paid the total amount in cash. If the dealer gives a scheme of 2% discount on the payments done within 10 days and 5% for the payments made in cash at the time of purchase, then find the amount paid by Ramesh on 19 November 2019.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. ₹14,810.
Ramesh purchased some items from a dealer on 19 November 2019 = Rs 5480
Ramesh purchased some items from a dealer on 10 November 2019 = Rs 9800
The amount paid by Ramesh on 19 November 2019 = [9800 × (100 - 2)/100] + [5480 × (100 - 5)/100] = 9604 + 5206 = 14810
