What is the single discount that is equivalent to two successive discounts of 12.5% and 20%?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 30%

Single discount equivalent to two successive discounts = 12.5+20−(12.5×20100)12.5 + 20 - \left ( \frac{12.5\times 20}{100} \right )

Single discount equivalent to two successive discounts = 32.5 - 2.5 = 30%
