      Question

      An article having a cost price of Rs. 400 is marked 50%

      above its cost price. 'A' proposes to sell this article after two successive discounts of 10% and Rs. 20 while 'B' proposes to sell it after a single discount of 30%. What is the difference between the selling prices proposed by 'A' and 'B'?
      A 200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 300 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 100 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 250 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ;
      Marked price of the article = 400 X 1.50 = Rs. 600

      Selling price proposed by 'A' = 600 X 0.90 - 20 = 540 - 20 = Rs. 520

      Selling price proposed by 'B' = 600 X 0.70 = Rs. 420

      So, required difference = 520 - 420 = Rs. 100
