The marked price on an item was Rs 2000/- but the shopkeeper offered a discount of 20 percent. How much did he finally sell the item for?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Rs.1600

The marked price of the item = Rs. 2000

The shopkeeper offers a discount of 20%.

Selling Price = Marked Price - (Discount% × Marked Price)

S.P. = 2000 - (20% of 2000) = 2000 - 20(2000/100) = 2000 - 400 = Rs. 1600
