      which is Rs. 2,400. After offering two successive discounts, one of 10% and another of Rs. 228, the article is sold. What is the profit earned on this sale?
      A Rs. 180 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Marked price of article = 1.3 x 2,400 = Rs. 3,120 Selling price of article = 0.9 x 3,120 - 228 = 2,808 - 228 = Rs. 2,580 Therefore, profit earned = 2,580 - 2,400 = Rs. 180
