Marked price of an item is Rs 200. On purchase of 1 item discount is 22%, on purchase of 4 items discount is 33%. Rabia buys 5 items, what is the maximum effective discount she can take?1). 35 percent2). 30.8 percent3). 34 percent4). 20.4 percent

Answer»

Marked Price = Rs. 200

After Rabia buys 4 items, she GETS 33% discount

∴ Selling Price = 200 – (0.33 × 200) = Rs. 134.

Since the items are 4 in number total price = 4 × 134 = Rs. 536

Now, Rabia buys another item ⇒ Discount = 22%

∴ Selling Price = 200 – (0.22 × 200) = 200 – 156.

∴ Total Selling Price = 536 + 156 = Rs. 692.

Total marked price = 200 × 5 = Rs. 1000

⇒ Effective Discount = [(1000 – 692)/1000] × 100 = 30.8 %
