Two successive discounts of 10 percent and 30 percent are given on an article. What is the net discount?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
Let the marked price = ₹100
First discount = 10%
Price after the first discount = 100 − 10 = ₹90
Second discount = 30% of 90 = ₹27
Net discount = 10 + 27 = ₹37
Net discount = 37%
