If the price of sugar is decreased by 20%, then the new price of 3kg sugar originally costing ₹ 120 will be ₹ 96

From the question it is given that, price of 3kg sugar originally costing ₹ 120

The price of the sugar is decreased by 20%

Then, the new price of sugar = 120 – 20% of original price

= 120 – (20/100) × 120

= 120 – (2400/100)

= 120 – 24

= ₹ 96
