Answer: £570

Step-by-Step Solution:

Initial Price (I.P) = £600
Discount Rate for Students (D.R) = 5%

Discounted Price = I.P - D.R

Therefore,
= 5/100 * 600
= 5 * 6
=> 30

5% of I.P = £30

Therefore,
= 600 - 30
=> 570

Discounted Price = £570

Answer:

cost price = £ 600

discount = 5%

selling price =

5/100 * 600.

5 * 6

30 £

price = 600 - 30

= 570
