Question
Tanushi bought a fan for Rs. 2400 and she marked
it 66(2/3)% above its cost price. She sold it after giving two successive discounts of 12.5% and x%. If the selling price of the fan is Rs. 2625, then find the value of 'x'.Solution
Marked price of the fan = Rs. 2400 x (5/3) = Rs. 4000
ATQ, Or, 4000 x (7/8) x {(100 - x) /100} = 2625
Or, 35 x (100 - x) = 2625
Or, (100 - x) = 75
So, 'x' = 25
