We are given original price of the trouser = 10000/-
Soloman was given a discount offer of
%.
4 1/2 % can be written in decimal form 4.5% and then 0.045.
Now, we need to find the discount amount of the total 10000/ amount.
4 1/2 % of 10000 = 0.045 × 10000 = 450.
450 is the discount amount on the total amount 10000.
In order to find the final amount, we need to subtract discount amount from original amount.
