      An article has a cost price of Rs. 750 and is marked 40%

      above its cost price. 'A' proposes to sell this article after two successive discounts of 12% and Rs. 50, while 'B' proposes to sell it after a single discount of 20%. What is the difference between the selling prices proposed by 'A' and 'B'?
      A 20 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 34 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 55 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 28 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ;
      Marked price of the article = 750 X 1.40 = Rs. 1050

      Selling price proposed by 'A' = 1050 X 0.88 - 50 = 924 - 50 = Rs. 874

      Selling price proposed by 'B' = 1050 X 0.80 = Rs. 840

      So, required difference = 874 - 840 = Rs. 34
