SSC GD Const (English) - 21 Feb 2024 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q50

The marked price and selling price of an article is Rs. 6600 and Rs. 4752 respectively. What is the discount percentage?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 28%.

Given that,

The marked price(MP) and selling price(SP) of an article are Rs. 6600 and Rs. 4752 respectively.

Now,

Discount = MP - SP

⇒ 6600 - 4752 = 1848

So,

Discount% = Discount/MP

⇒ 1848/6600 × 100 = 28%
