Correct Answer - Option 2 : 22.795%
Given:
A shopkeeper sells an item that is marked as Rs. 3685 for Rs. 2845
Formula used:
%discount = [(Mark price – Selling price)/Mark price] × 100
Calculation:
Mark price (M.P.) = 3685
Selling price (S.P.) = 2845
%discount = [(M.P. –S.P.)/M.P.] × 100
⇒ [(3685 – 2845)/3685] × 100
⇒ (840/3685) × 100
⇒ 840 × 20/737 = 22.795%
∴ Discount of offering is 22.795%
