    B 60 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 120 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 40 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let M.P = Rs 100 Total discounted price after allowing two discounts (25% & 20%) = Rs 100 × (100 - 25)/100 × (100 - 20)/100 = Rs 100 × 75/100 × 80/100 = Rs 60 Total discount = Rs 100 – 60 = Rs 40 Required discount % = 40/100 = 40%
