Question
The cost price of a table and a chair are Rs. 2,000 and Rs.
800, respectively. The shopkeeper marked up the prices by 20% on the table and 25% on the chair. If both were sold together for Rs. 2,700, find the total discount offered.Solution
ATQ,
Sum of the marked prices = 1.2 × 2000 + 1.25 × 800 = 2400 + 1000 = Rs. 3,400
Therefore, total discount offered = 3400 – 2700 = Rs. 700
