What is better, to have 70% discount or 40 and 30% discount consequently ?

Correct Answer: 70% is better

Explanation:

Let Price be Rs.100


1st CASE:


Then 100 x 70/100 = 70
=> price after discount = 100-70 = Rs.30


2nd CASE:


Then 100 x 40/100 = 40
=> price after discount = 100-40 = Rs.60
then
60 x 30/100 = 18
=> price after 2 consequent discount = 60-18 = Rs.42


=>from 1 and 2 cases, 70% discount is better.
