Question

What percent of discount should be given in a doll costing Rs 180

such that a customer can buy at Rs 160?​

Answer 1

11.11%

Explanation:

So the question is:

$180 * (x)% = $y

Therefore $180 - $y = $160

Now:

180 - 160 = 20

Therefore; $20 is the discount

Now per cent of discount:

20/180 * 100 = 11.111111111111111111111%

therefore: per cent of discount is 11.11% (rounded to two decimal place)

Answer 2

11.11 %

Explanation:

Costing Price = Rs 180

Selling Price = Rs 160

Discount = C.P - S.P

=> 180-160

=> Rs 20

In %age:

=>
`(20)/(180) * 100`

=> 11.11 %
