Answer»

Given, Original Price = RS. 1800

Price after 1ST discount of 10% = 1800 - {(10/ 100) * 1800}

= 1800 - 180

= 1620

Price after 2nd discount of 10% = 1620 -{(10/ 100) * 1620}

= 1620 - 162

Now, Single Discount Amount = 1800 - 1458 = 342 Rs.

Required Percentage =Single Discount Amount /Original Price * 100%

= (342 / 1800) * 100%

= 19 %

Given, Original Price = Rs. 1800

Price after 1st discount of 10% = 1800 - {(10/ 100) * 1800}
