Question

Mr rai bys a radio for rs 1880ans sell it to mr Sherpa at 20 percent .how much money does he pay for it

​

Answer 1

Mr. Rai will be receiving $1504 if he sells the radio for 20%.

Explanation:

To find a discount, move the decimal over twice on the percentage. After doing this, multiply that number by the original number. You will get a new number. Subtract the price by the new number and there is your answer.

For Example:

20% = .20

1880*.20= 376

1880-376= 1504

There is a simpler way of doing this as well. Multiplying by .8 (which is the remainder of 100% after taking away 20% if this makes sense) will give you the answer immediately. Hopefully this helps.

Good luck!

Answer 2

Rs 1504

Explanation:

Mr. Rai buys for Rs 1880.

He sells it to Mr. Sherpa at 20% discount.

1880 × 20%

= 376

1880 - 376

= 1504

Mr. Sherpa buys it for Rs 1504.
