  • Question
  • Rahul went to purchase a Nokia mobile handset, the shopkeeper told him to pay 20% tax if he asked the bill. Rahul manages to get the discount of 5% on the actual saleprice of the mobile and he paid the shopkeeper Rs. 3325 without tax. Besides he manages to avoid to pay 20% tax on the already discounted price, what is the amount of discount that he has gotten?


  • Options
  • A. 750
  • B. 375
  • C. 875
  • D. 525

  • Correct Answer
  • 875 

    Explanation

    CP = 100, SP (with tax) =120

     

    New   SP = 100 - 5 = 95

     

     Effective discount = 120 - 95 = 25 

     

    So, at SP of 95 ----> discount = 25

     

    and      at SP of 3325 -----> discount =  25 95 × 3325   =   875
